I work part time in a quilt museum store and the manager sold 4 lap sized, hand quilted pieces to a man for $45 each. I was told to put them together at work during the slow times. I left the bindings intact and stithed them together. I was very surprised that they came out even in the center and sides. Turns out he didn't want to pay for a larger quilt for his daughter to use on her mattress on the floor!
