Dear all,
I made two of these quilts for my Mother and MIL this year for Grandparent's Day--it was on Sept. 12. With me back at work now, it took a little longer than I anticipated.

My Mom took her quilt to work yesterday and the orders just flew in! Everyone wanted one. Now for the question? what to charge. I looked up other picture quilt services online and it looks like the going rate is approx. $10 picture. My mom said that people at work probably won't pay that. I don't want to short change myself, but the extra $$$ would be nice right now. Should I start out offering a "discount" for "coworkers" until I can get established? That way in a few months I can charge more? I know people are REALLY hurting with the economy right now.

thanks!
Rose
