also have a good friend who expects me to make her bed-sized quilts just because I am a quilter and she likes quilts. i.e. She has always wanted a house quilt. I have offered to teach her how to quilt, and she just says I can make her one....really? You would let me do that? LOL

Uh huh, I have one who thinks the same way, I even bought her a sewing machine for Christmas last year , a Kenmore which they have a Janome sewing machine just like it, and she won't even try to sew. Says she just can't do it, or says she can't see to thread the needle, (there is glasses out there that people can buy which makes that hole bigger.) I have offered to help teach her to sew, but she always finds other things to do when I even suggest such a thing. (She says , you've been sewing for a lot of years,) I never had any sewing lessons to speak of except in homemaking in high school, I've learned most of everything by doing and reading, mostly from the internet or quilt magazines.
