How easy it is for us to get into those situations by carelessly responding "I might" when we really mean "no." I surely have done it. Why not just come out and say, "I've really given this some thought, but, you know, making a quilt is such a huge undertaking, and I realize I just don't want to take on a project like that. But if you call the local quilt shop (or something), you might be able to find someone who makes quilts for others, and you could arrange with them to make one for you." That's the kind of solution I have used once I realized what kind of trap I was getting myself into with my "Maybe later ..." kind of responses. Good luck to you!
