Oh, orangeroom, amen to THAT! One of my relatives literally thought I could make her a quilt - fully pieced, quilted and bound - in 3 days. And it wasn't a simple quilt, either. When I explained to her that just piecing the pattern she wanted done would take at least 2 weeks of working almost full-time on it, she looked at me quizzically and said "why would it take that long? It doesn't look THAT difficult!". Groan. Needless to say, she never got that quilt.
