It's always difficult to give estimates especially if this person is a good friend which can make their perceived expectations even more difficult. I made a good friend's daughter a large baby quilt for her 1st child - the quilt was partially appliqued and was a complicated pattern - took awhile to make but turned out great. My friend then wanted one for each subsequent grandchild not realizing all that was involved. I told her that I would be very happy to work with her and show her how to sew and make them....... she wasn't interested and never asked again.
