Same story, second verse: In my younger years, I used to make wedding cakes as a hobby because I loved doing so and I wanted to participate in the happy events. I did this only for people in my church and/or brides I knew personally. I finally stopped making cakes after several mothers-of-the-bride complained about my prices which covered ONLY the price of ingredients. Now when I go to a wedding, I think about the going price for cakes and am so glad that I am not involved in the entire process.
There's no way I would quilt for money for the reasons discussed here. I want to keep the fun in my quilting projects.
