I used to not want to quilt for money because I felt like it took SO long for me to make a quilt for myself, that by the time I was done I wouldn't want to give it up! I have been quilting for a long time now though, and I do A LOT of sewing, so making simple quilts goes much faster for me. I have begun selling some small items on Etsy, small quilts, and that seems to work well for me. I think setting boundaries with customers and feeling comfortable with those boundaries helps too. People who are not quilters have NO idea what is a complicated or easy quilt, and to ask them to pick what they want you to make...well sometimes people come up with CRAZY ideas! Lol* Some of those crazy wild ideas are great ideas too - but they have no concept of what it costs to make a quilt or what kind of time goes into it. So if you set a limit...like, I will make you a chinese coin, nine patch, or bow tie of this size with these fabrics for this price...that makes life a little easier. :)
