    I am finally taking the plunge to start selling some of my quilts. Over the years I have donated and given hundreds of quilts. I did my first commission one this month and it is on it's way to the quilters but am already spreading the word that i am making and selling babay quilts and got two orders yesterday ;).. I can't stop quilting but I sure need a way to fund this habit.. so wish me luck !!

    I really would like to know more about your plans. I love to quilt and am looking to find a way to fund it also. So many say that they cannot do the work and make any money at it. Do you have any suggestions?

    Sorry for all the rude questions, but I had to ask.
