Non-quilters don't understand the value of what we do because we're willing to price ourselves so cheap. We TRAINED them by not charging what we should for our time.

I agree with those who suggested $20 to $25 is what they'd bring. So . . .when you're priced at what the market can bare . . .you have no choice but to bring the price of cost of goods sold to a more manageable level. Look for bolt ends. . .sales . . .coupons, etc :)

Something else you might need to consider . . .if this center is an assisted living center for those with Alzheimer's is that patients living there may not have control of their finances. Most in that condition have assigned family members in that role :)
This community is for active seniors (independent), assisted care (several levels of assistance), and they have a section for Alzheimer's patients.
