To funny. Marilyn. The colors are a little spread out. But as always I think that is just more of a challenge for you.
Good luck. Hopefully you wont get the blocks half done to have her change her mind again.
Would love to see what you come up with. As you go. But it is up to you and what you have time for.
As always your creative juices are flowing and this is but a challenge to wet the appetite.
Drooling here. LOL please share your progress.

Keep in mind at some point may have to let her know you think somthing just didn't go.... in a nice way! :)
All pieces chosen are Great !!
About as far as i go with asking someone what they like are, what colors do you like.
and of course will be watching for updates !!
Happy Quilting !!

WOW!!! What a story and a ride you've taken. You have the patience of a "Saint". I like the colors in both pics except the RED. The shade doesn't work for me but that's me. Can't wait to see the some blocks done. Good Luck!!!!

At the very least, I might be thinking of the most irritating perfectionist quilter I know to refer to her for the job! I'm afraid I'd be pulling out my own hair, working with her on this quilt. Good Luck, Danmar!

What is the final price? I would make one block and show it to Pauline and if she decided to change again, I would have to be bad and say no to making the quilt. I can be patient, but only so...................far,

Yes, you are going to really take a loss the way it seems now, and will work for every penny of that. I think I would just have to tell her NO MORE CHANGES. and find the final pattern and get going if you are still planning to make it. Good Luck

Marilyn, are you familiar with the musical Wicked? There's a song in it that fits this situation perfectly. "No Good Deed Goes Unpunished"! (And I know all the words by heart!)
