wabi, can she make an actual quilt for the guys on here that want them?
If she can use our avatars for a pattern she might be able to come out in the red after 2 quilts as cheap as we are around here. No one here, no matter how much they like their quilts, would pay more than $10 for a real one.
My wife was way ahead of the quilt thing.' 'Back in 72, or so, she made a wool quilt, the wool I pulled from a dead ewe, she washed it in the machine in a bag.
Air dried it, then carded it, and stitched the two layers together in a fancy way.
My dear wife makes a lot of of quilts. I shudder to think what a fair price would be, time, and material.
My dear mother is a quilter. Priceless?
Homemade stuff is priceless.
The other night I went out and grabbed a scarf for around my neck as it was down in the 20's.
Came home and asked my wife when she crocheted it for me. Best we could figure it was somewhere more than 20 years and closer to 25. One of the nicest things she's done for me.

Won't be any handmades from wife unless pigs fly, but, she sure was and still is cute.... However, Mom made us a dandy quilt when we got married. It's a treasure for sure.
