I have made and gifted all of my children and grandchildren quilts. Now they are asking for me to make them special quilts for the second time around. I think they do not realize the entire cost of making a quilt and paying to have it quilted not to mention the time. Most people have no idea of the actual cost and are shocked if you tell them. On a fixed income it is difficult to gift them. Certainly no one would pay the actual cost not even including the labor.
