Just not sure if I have all the time to do my own quilting, teach my two girls and to do all of her quilts for only $20 a pop. They were pretty small ones. I just wasn't sure what to charge for larger ones. I will, however, start insisting that she provide the threads that she wants me to quilt them with. I went through three spools of monofilament.
meant to ask you why did you use mono thread???
if baby quilts, they are going to have to get washed a lot and mono does not hold up to being put in the dryer very often!
She wanted mono on the baby quilts. There was this dotted green line that flowed through the fabric and she thought it would be nice if I FMQ on that line but didn't want the green covered up or done over with green thread. So, I just did what she asked for. As for the lap quilts, she didn't want anything taking away from the design and I couldn't match up her fabric color with thread so I just kept the mono in my machine and kept going.
