LOL Needless to say I don't have any customers LOL. Quilting is a hobby for me something I enjoy doing if I had to make quilts to sell I would not like it. LOL
"Ditto" to all of the above. I have people asking me all the time and I just tell them that I do quilting as a hobby and they could not afford to pay me the cost, time and materials that I have in them. I am also choosy as to who I gift them too. When I quote 150 to 300 bucks they also tell me they can get them cheaper at a store. I send them on their way...........lol
