Keep track of what he spends on materials, supplies etc. And you keep track of the time spent on the project. If he is truly a "good" man, he will make sure your split is what it should be. You can start out small with a few projects (table runners, place mats, oven mitts, throws etc. Make one of each to show and then take orders - with a portion paid at the time of the order. There are many business people that can give you advice so you don't get taken - sometimes even by well-meaning people. Blessings and I pray that this will work for you and enable you to have more money to spend on your projects.

I would ask if he is aware how much TIME is necessary to dedicate to a quilt. I'd just be sure to ask all questions and put all expectations in writing before going into this 'business venture' - good luck!!

If you want to do this, make sure you get to buy the material so you know it will be good quality. Be sure thread, batting and anything else included in the cost of each quilt. Also keep track of your time invested making each quilt (that is where a lot of the cost is). Since this is your hobby make sure you always enjoy it. If it gets to be work stop while you still like it. And listen to the business advise everyone else is giving you.
