Well, learned that quilting flannel and polyester on my DSM was really hard. Plus the fact that this is the first time I had ever brought the backing to the front to bind. Anyway, I just finished it and figured I would charge maybe $40 to 50 for the work. The quilt is 64x42. Do you think that I will be charging to much?

Maybe you could ask her how much over $50.00 would she pay you. Sometimes you get more than you would have asked for. Just a suggestion. Otherwise, you do deserve more than $50.00, so set a price and she is obligated
to pay you.
