I make many items for people (family and close friends) I refuse to make quilts "on request" - I tell people I give my things away but "no one has enough money to buy them!!" I only quilt with my DSM. I tell people I will be glad to help them learn to make what they want but I won't make it for them. (Haven't lost any friends - yet - with this position.)
