It is a real shame people don't want to pay but it is largely due to ignorance. I have a close friend who asked me to make her 3 kids quilts. She kind of expected me to say okay and that would be it. But instead I told her to go to a quilt shop near her (she lives in FL I live in SC) and pick out some fabric, buy it and send it or tell me which fabric or theme and send me the money just for cost. Well I did not think she would but she went to a quilt shop and then called me. She was shocked about the cost of the fabric and even mentioned needle cost. She said she would send me a couple of hundred dollars to start and then let her know how much more to send. My point is (after being so long winded) send them to a quilt shop even if it means you find the shop for them (just do a phone book check on line), and tell them the same I told my friend. They learn the real cost of something of quality that is going to last more then their lifetime. If they mention Walmart send them there, but point out they get what they pay for (once n a while Walmart has nice fabric) when it comes to fabric and Walmart is limited in the choices of fabric. Then if that does not do the trick, disown them as a family member and go on your way. :lol: (just kidding, hmm kind of)
