When I first started quilting, a dear friend asked me to make her a queen size quilt ......for $25.00. I told her that the fabric, batting, backing would run about $100.00 and that was that. I used to make wedding cakes for family and the same dear friend asked me to make her granddaughter a wedding cake and I said OK. Then her DIL called and wanted me to make a wedding cake for her daughter and a groom's cake and she wanted it with the cheapest ingredients ever. Thought about it for a day and called both up and said I could not do this. So the moral of this short story is to be very careful in making quilts or anything else for people unless you are totally prepared and want to do this for others.
