Yes, I will charge much more if I do a customer one again and if they don't want to pay that much, then I'll just keep happily quilting for my family and charity. Thanks for your pricing info.

As an asside, I charge a lot more that $4 per hour, plus the fabric is always extra. and then to top it off I charge for the machine quiltiing, even if I do it myself. The last quilt I did was queen sized with two matching pillow shams. I charged $835.
Perhaps the next time you'll charge more.
Remember quilting is a pleasurable past time and we like to give our quilts to those not only that we love but to those who appreciate them and what it takes to make one.
Should you be asked again I hope you will charge more.
