It sounds like a fair deal to me -do lots of layer cutting and chain piecing and you'll have them done in no time!

Sounds like you need to have an old fashion quilting Bee.

Yes, lots of work - just hope the pattern isn't too complicated. Pay is good tho. Good luck and good for you - getting paid for something you love to do!!

Wow.......can you do it?

Glad she appreciates all your hard work.

Did she show you the pattern before you agreeded to do it?

Would be interested in knowing more about this great project you have going.
What unique gift.

I've been trying to convince my husband that 60 dollars for a standard size baby quilt is a good price, I need to show him this post so he'll believe me!

I'd love to see some pics and hope they all come together with no issues, and no snags!

Sew-n-sew...can't wait to see pictures....

My friend is well to do and I won't have to worry about her not paying for them. 3 years ago she asked me to do the silk flowers for her son's wedding and got paid very well. I sure wish I had her life.

Someone elses life often looks better simply because we're not living it! But I do know what you mean - wish I had all the money I need and all the money I want. But God gave me a great family instead.

What a cross to bear!

More money for your own supplies. Very thoughtful and nice of her to supply all the materials up front and you don't have to go shopping for them. I hope you enjoy making them and they are fairly easy patterns.
