People usually don't want to pay what it takes to make a quilt so that will probably stop most people from asking twice. If she wants to pay then go for it. People who don't sew usually think everything is wonderful!

Has she seen any of your work? If not, I'd show her something; then I would tell her the expenses that have to be covered in the quilts you make for her. Then let her decide whether she wants to continue or not.

Absolutely you are good enough ... have fun with it and make some $$$ at the same time !!!!!!!!

When I started quilting with absolutely no ability or interest, made Paddington bear panel baby quilts stitch by hand, nothing there really. Was thrilled to see I had done something, went to a Tim's coffee place showed my girlfriend who is no clue on quilts. She did respectfully thing of complimenting and 2 lady customers in background asked if they could buy on spot. Their busy work schedule was an issue to go shopping for a baby, so they bought off of me.. I charged them $25.00 didn't know what to say. I had saved them lots of expense in going out to shop waste time, travel costs time loss off their job getting a customer. I was excited.. Other times sold some patchwork baby quilts in yard sale $15.00 that's give away but fabric thread was given to me therefore nothing loss.. Poly batting was here $2.47metre. OK! nothing gained, nothing loss.. NOW.. I improved created a ebay, etsy, and weebly.com(free domain) to post my items.. I always have a gift on hand clothes or baby quilt, then some get donated to our guild. Like yourself I like making them.. You live Indiana, from Wpg here we have a Free duty customs shop that used to take in on % sales items. I sold children's clothing worth $10.00 for $52.00 at a Forks boutique they sold kept %.

I wouldn't make a quilt for hire. If I made one and someone said they wanted to buy it I might consider selling it but I don't think so. Most people have no idea what it takes to make one and would not be willing to pay what I would want for it. I therefore only make them to give away and for gifts.
