I once got a hilarious request (at least in my opinion) to make 3 queen sized quilts to use as drapes for a good friend’s new house........I adore that friend still but her husband called to ask because he was too cheap to buy blinds.....having me gift quilts in his odd choice of colors was a much cheaper idea because he was assuming I would gift them. Sorry way too busy!
At the same time I was living in a new house with no drapes on the sliding glass doors because they were super expensive, and he must have known we were without drapes! I considered quilts for mine after the conversation but waited and bought blinds on sale. Because quilts were not cheap and a whole lot of time!
