    I get the cost of the fabrics up front. Then if the person wants to back out, I get the materials at least. So far I have been lucky....5 quilts ordered and paid for as agreed. I am not looking forward to the first one that goes awry. So glad you got it worked out with another buyer.

    Custom orders should always require 1/2 down,change of mind does not mean a refund in my opinion.

    What if you had not found a buyer so quickly ?
    Congrads that you did sell the quilt,I am sure it was beautiful !!

    Well, if she does call and wants the quilt, just tell her that it is too late. That it has been sold to a person who appreciates the work that you put into it. I am very happy that you sold it.

    You said it right :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
