Default What would you do?

Yes, this sounds like a good idea. I would *definitely* steer clear of
the whole situation. The MIL obviously doesn't understand the
time/energy/skill that goes into making even a small quilt. She'll
probably feel ripped-off if you charge her *anything* like a
reasonable rate for your work. And your husband may well feel caught in
the middle.

Been There, Done That (can ya tell?!!!)
