I agree! And I bet if she's charging $10-$15 an hour to make these, a small quilt would be in the $200 range for time and fabric. Sheesh. Let up on the woman and stop undervaluing our works. It's just perpetuates more people thinking our quilts aren't worth good $.
I know I have several small wall hangings I wouldn't part with for less than $150. And there is no way on earth I'd even consider selling a queen size for less than $1000.
