I have to agree. $300 is not much for 3 quilts, expecially if she expects them quilted. The number 1 reasons to do the quilts would be:
1. Because YOU want to, and no other reason.
Otherwise they will become a burden to you.

Suggestion: Talk to her about the batting. You buy what fits the bill AND works for you. She might come up with something that absolutely will not work well with your machine... Let us know what you decide to do and when finished, send us photos! We'd love to see what you do with feedsacks.. :) :)

Don't sell yourself short - Your time is worth a lot - What size will they be and what pattern. I had a friend who wanted a quilt for a queen size be but the price was going to be around $500 - It is a lot of money but that's what it is

Need advice also about pricing. I have two redwork quilts (one is lap size/crib size and the other is possibly wheelchair size. I hand embroider each scene on both and hand quilted both. I just do not know what to charge.
