I had a very close friend ask me to put together some antique bowtie squares that were her Grandmother's . When I was done, the quilt top would have fit a double bed. Then I added the batting and backing (what I call the pillowcase method - so there was no binding) and pinned it, so all she had to do was tie the quilt. She gave me a $20 Starbucksgift card. I think she was clueless as to how many hours I put into it! Now when someone asks if I'll make them soemthing, my standard answer is "you wouldn't want to pay me what I would have to charge" - end of discussion.
