The man I used to work for ask me to make him a quilt. I told him if he's pay for all of the materials I would. He agreed. I went out and bought the fabrics for a double size, which is the size he ask for. When I told him that I had everything ready to start on it, he told me, "You just go ahead and make me two of them and I'm going to give you $50 for them!" He thought he was really being very generous. Needless to say, I never even started on it. I still have that fabric to this day. I learned my lesson. Now when someone ask me to make them a quilt I tell them I don't sew for the public. Better to just tell them up front than get the indignant looks they give you when true costs are quoted. I make quilts for just my family now, when I want to gift them.
