I would have handled it by avoiding giving an answer and hoping she got the hint. The last time someone asked me to make her a quilt, I said "Okay, I'll tell you what. If you come to my house and cook and clean for me for a month or so, I'll work on a quilt for you". I never heard another word, which pretty much tells me that her time and work is a lot more valuable than mine and she doesn't deserve a quilt.
That is a lovely quilt and she's lucky she got it.
