Had to pick my jaw up off the floor!

Seriously, that's the most gorgeous jacket I've ever seen -- love both colors, and your quilting just takes it to a whole new dimension....

The jacket took 10 hours just to quilt on the longarm. Then there is the marking, construction and fabric cost. So I doubt I will be making to sell anytime soon, well never. Then you have the problem of size and color.At least if one were sold to a quilter they would have an appreciation of the time and work involved.

I was just asked to finish a quilt where the patches were bought at a garage sale. I would have to do the work, provide the finishing fabrics for the top, the batting and the backing and do the work for $100. WE are talking about hexigons and hours of piecing. Is anyone else feeling unappreciated by the general public.[QUOTE=BarbM32;5675822]I love the jacket. Are you considering making to sell. You can PM me if you do.[/QUOTE
