I have to agree. When very small my grandmother taught my cousins and myself how to crochet. We all had a hand in making one tablecloth that was used for the holidays. It took all of us months of work with Grandma working on it in between. I also agree with Geri B maybe she only does for her own and doesn't like deadlines. I saw a tablecloth at an estate sale and a women said she would give them $5. They took it. I wanted to cry for the person who created that beautiful piece. It would've fit a table of 8 easily. I would've gladly paid more for it. There was not one hole in it.
