That's how I made the Turning Twenty for my friend's great nephew. She asked would I make one, and I said, yes, but she had to help pick out the fabric. And she paid too. It was a fun quilt to make, she is happy with it, and the little boy loves it too. What could be better? Well, zero calorie chocolate would be great too, but that's not happening!

None of these ladies sew, but I might throw the idea out. Each has offered to pay me to make a quilt for them in the past, so I don't know why I was surprised that they took me up on my offer.
I live in the country, about 15 miles from town, so we really don't live close together.
I wanted them to pick the pattern and fabric so they would like the final results, and because I am not real confident at selecting fabrics yet. You'd think that after 2 years I would be, but I just can't visualize the final quilt by looking at fabric. Maybe someday...

That is sooo awesome. I would make a quilt for my friends too if they would just purchase the materials. People have no glue how much they cost. I have been making them for family members. Plugging along. I sometimes can not believe how much I have spent on materials. I am getting better about finding better deals.
