Somehow I missed that she stated hours...and yes, it does...which is still not an outrageous 'salary' considering all the effort and materials....
i don't know what she paid for the thread where she lives but in the US it would be a LOT. so, no it's not an outrageous amount. when people ask me how much it would cost to 'do' a quilt i always tell them they don't have enough money. i give all mine away. if i didn't love the recepients and enjoy the process you couldn't pay me enough to quilt/embroider/etc.
