When you say "sew/quilt" is there a chance that she's thinking of some sewing in addition to those crib quilts? Go with caution, especially if she picks the fabrics. One of my friends years ago agreed to make a skirt for another friend of hers, thinking: "How hard can that be?" and the woman picked a sheer, slippery fabric that frayed like crazy and had to be lined. It was extremely difficult to work with. She had to buy a special foot for her machine, and a straight stitch needle plate. The fact that her friend bought the fabric made it all the more difficult because she was afraid of ruining it. Even if it's fabric only for quilting, you should go along for the shopping because your friend may not know the difference between one fabric and another. Good luck!
