But, you might find this post informative: http://carolinapatchworks.com/blog/2009/01/08/a-look-back-at-2008 Long and the short of it, $450 really is not that much from the standpoint of somebody hand-making complex quilts.

As to the current financial straights, we're working directly with Obama to have an incentive for video game quilt buyers written into the economic stimulus package; stay tuned.

This company has lost their mind. It's geeky and 80's cool, but $450 for a blanket with Donkey Kong on it is a little out of touch with our current financial straits. How much??
