Tell them that even if you stopped eating and sleeping and doing anything else, you wouldn't have the time or money to make a quilt for everyone who wants one from you, but that you will be glad to teach them how to make one for themselves. That ought to fix the problem.
I am constantly amazed at the people who think that they are "entitled" to someone's hard work etc. When I worked part-time for an airline, I would have complete strangers ask me for buddy passes, free trips, etc.
