Great reading, thanks

Are you making the lap size for her, or can she do that on her own? This is such a pretty pattern, I hope you'll get to work with all the beautiful colors :)

WOW! We all need to start T-shirt quilt businesses on the east coast!

In other areas someone might be lucky to net a $100 profit off a quilt of this type. If this is a friend or family member I think your number is fine. If this is strictly a paying customer you never want to undervalue your work! If quilting were easy then everyone could just make their own and wouldn't need to pay you to do it. Good luck!
