I understand how you feel the quilt I'm working on the fabric alone was 50 dollars in regard to how much it cost I really didn't care because she is family. Let alone the extra fabric I bought just to finish it. I have never paid that much for fabric and yes I felt guilty at first but like you said your SNL has been a good man to your DD. And this quilt is for my cousin she gets good grades and has had a lot of stomach issues on and off the last couple of years. I feel she has just worked so hard and deserves something wonderful like a quilt.
