She has never brought up the subject with my husband. Next time, I will say $145! LOL
Yea, a soon to be grandma/friend of mine asked me about making a baby quilt for her. After I emailed her about patterns, costs involved, etc, she never replied back either way. Nuff said. And, i never mentioned "labor" costs. I would have pieced a top for her but the long arm charges and materials were on her dime, not mine!
