I commend you for thinking of the money issue up front. But, even with that, many people have a hard time being honest about their money situation and react the way she did. If this is a possiblity, suggesting alternative backings such as sheets(use low thread count sheets) could ease her fears of too much money being spent.
It's wonderful that you are teaching the young ones to quilt. :-)
