I don't mind saying no at all to anything I don't want to do but I like to kill with kindness sometimes. I tell the person I will make the quilt but you have to go with me to buy the fabric, pattern of my skill level, and thread. I only use quality quilt shop fabric when I make a quilt for hire so meet me here: name of quilt shop. I also say I charge 4 times the cost of supplies as my labor charge. This cost does not include quilting the quilt. I will have another person do the quilting, you will pay their fee, and I will bind it. Usually if the person makes the appointment by the time she sees the cost and how much fabric is needed plus the backing I get the UH I really can't make up my mind, I'll have to think about it and I never hear about the quilt again. Anyone mentions tee shirt quilt to me I say NO, can't help, won't help. But know someone that takes orders. LOL
