I was questioned once about charging for thread. it told her yes, unless you just want small pieces of fabric back. I got a stunned look on that one.
Lynnie you are so Long Island! You make me homesick for my dear sister-in-law! Thanks for the smile!

And to the original poster, who could have known that ONE TWIN SIZE QUILT was implying a second twin size to match. That would be two quilts, as I count it. Of course, perhaps there are people out there that assume "twin" means there are two beds....LOL
