thanks, all...
I have no intention of quilting for others... for several reasons..
1. remember there is a quilt shop close enough that people can go there and they are VERY VERY reasonable - I had the very nice ladies there do some 4 or 5 quilts for me and they did a great job - but I have so many that when we added it all up it really made sense to get our own outfit (meaning DH and I)
for starters I think it would be really rude to even attempt to compete with them - as DH says, "they are trying to make a living"
2. I don't want *my* machine tied up with somebody else's quilt :!:
3. I've reached the age that I certainly don't want my TIME tied up with somebody else's quilt :!: :!:
4. I have horrible visions of somebody absolutely HATING what I did with their quilt and refusing to pay and possibly even saying *I* have to pay THEM for the fabric etc (in fact, I talked to one of the quilt shop ladies yesterday and she said THEY have the same fear)
5. and no, I wouldn't
let anybody else USE this machine either!!
I don't recall anybody saying 'here, use this machine' before we got this!! 8)
