Her family is very crafty, her dad rents tables at craft shows for his wood crafts, her mom & sister used to make & sell cakes for every occasion. So she knows how much work goes into hand crafted items. That being said, I will name a price for the quilt. If she wants to pay the price, fine. If not, so be it. No feelings hurt here, I don't normally make quilts for others. Just thought I might make some extra cash as things are pretty tight financially for me right now.
I think your plan is a good one. Making multiple quilts to sell as a business is one thing, making one as a gift for someone is another, and making one - just one - to get a little extra cash is still another thing.
