She doesn't expect me to cut my prices, but I know I will get a lot of repeat business from her and she will refer me to her quilting group so I want to give her a good deal. What would be a good price to charge her? I am thinking around $65 per quilt. Too much or not enough?? What does everyone else think or charge?
If you want referrals, you may want to give her the 'family' price, but make it clear that others will be charged a good price (fair price) for a good job. Just ask her not to advertise your 'family price'.
I agree; also it depends on how much you enjoy doing it AND if you are considering starting a business.
