You might want to see the fabric before committing to working with it.

Some feedsacks are in not-so-good condition.

Don't back down because you feel quilty about charging so much. It is okay to say NO.

Yes to all above, do not make the mistakes I , as well as ohters here have made by getting in too deep. The "job" can soon become a burden you will not enjoy.

================
I think it would be a good idea to space them out like you said, AND get paid for each one before starting the next one. Some folks, and I'm not saying she is one, might just look at the finished quilt, do not like it, and want their fabric back and no payment.

Ever happen to any of this group? Not me, I'm not that good a quilter, and only do for family and friends, as gifts.
