Would it be awful of me to buy (her with me) the fabric that the pattern calls for or should I use the ones I have come up with. We are talking more than an extra yard of fabric. I have many projects planned that will be put aside so I can make Grandmas quilt right away.
It sounds like MIL wants you to make this quilt but didn't say pattern or color choice...If it's just make Grandma a quilt, I would make what I think would work...If MIL is in nursing home and doesn't have all her memory about her all the time, I would not expect her to pay for anything...Just my thoughts...
