Default Working with a "Customer"

All of the quilts I've made to date have been things I wanted to create that other people have seen and bought, or just a few quilts where people have given me a "muse" fabric and asked me to make something. I had someone who has seen my work over the years ask me if I would make her a quilt so I set up a time for her to come over and chat about what she might like. I really don't know anything about her because we aren't friends (we have a business relationship unrelated to my artwork).

I know this person isn't artsy and doesn't sew so I'm worried about making sure we clearly communicate about what she wants. I will certainly make liberal use of google images during this discussion, but I wondered how other people who do this all the time work through it. Any thoughts or pointers?
