All I can tell you is Henry Ford proved that assembly line is the most efficient way to finish in a timely fashion. Is that possible with this pattern? Good luck dear!

Wow lucky you!! What is the quilt pattern? Are they all to be just the same? Can you post pics of the pattern and fabric?

That sounds great and would be fun if you could do each one a little different from the others... My daughter asked me (at the last minute) to make her bridesmaids' gifts (travel bags) and I had to turn her down... I had already made her 4 bridesmaids' dresses, two jr. bridesmaids, and a very elaborate flower girl dress, not to mention altering the wedding gown to fit and making the bustle, altering suits and pants for some of the guys, and a Marine corp dress blue coat for my husband to give her away in. I also made the ring bearer pillow, flower girl basket, the wedding arch and 8 tablecloths for the big round tables at her reception. Enough was enough, LOL!

You are going to be a busy person. It's a big compliment to your work to be asked to make these for wedding party gifts. Congratulations.

That sounds like fun and she is paying you what appears a fair price per quilt. Better get sewing. ~smile~
