I LOVE to quilt, and I never accept payment for my work as long as the "wanter" purchases all the fabric, batting, and thread for quilting. But PLEASE!!!!!! Do not put me in a bind when you already know I have SEVERAL quilts that I need to get out around the same time. Yes I may get three tops done this week but next week when I have two sick kids, a husband who needs help on homework, and a dog who got his boys removed I won't get as much done!
Now I am back to sewing one for my sons birthday (3.19) two for my sister (3.23) and one for my best friend (3.29) The auction quilt will just have to wait till next month!
oh and NO I don't have time this coming week to teach you how to cut fabric for a quilt! Sorry maybe next month AFTER I get the quilt for you done!
Anyways thanks for letting me go ahead and get that out of the way before there was any more confusion!
How about a friend who says "Can you make a baby quilt for me so I don't have to spend too much money on something else?" She must figure it takes no time, costs nothing, and I can also do it in my sleep. It never interferes with MY life in any way. Posh!!! Well, I DID tell her she had NO idea of what goes into the making of even a small quilt. The time, money, effort, and heart. It was made VERY clear and I was insulted. She backed WAY off. Humph........................so there!
