Default Payment for Long Arm Quilting

As I'm preparing to start my next quilt, I'm thinking towards the future and finishing it up and quilting it. The next quilt on my "to-do" list is a baby quilt, so I don't think doing basic line quilting will be a problem on my Janome Sewist 525s. However, the quilt next on the list is a Summer In The Park lap quilt that I don't think I'll be able to handle on my home machine.

My sister's MIL has a long-arm machine and has offered to quilt anything that I bring to her for free. However, I'm of the school of "don't take advantage of people's kindness" and feel guilty about asking her to do one (or more) quilts for free.

Any suggestions on how I can "pay" her for doing the quilting? I know she shops at JoAnn's, so maybe a gift card there... but maybe there is something else that I could get her as a way of saying "Thank You."

Thank you for any suggestions
