She didn't offer to buy the fabric or even pay to have the machine quilting done. It was really hard for me, but when she asked the second time if I was going to do it, I got up my nerve and told her no. I am so relieved.

I think the hardest & biggest lesson we need to learn in life is to JUST SAY NO when asked to do things by other people we don't really want to do.
