    Anyone have any good suggestions on selling my quilts and getting a good price for them?
    Thanks,

    Bill

    As a buyer, I like Etsy - you might check that out.

    If you have a local Arts Center, possibly you could schedule a "show" to display your work and have a meet and greet with the artist event. These facilities will typically advertise your event and it will provide a means to have folks see your work. I would think that Historic Jonesborough would be a great draw for people from all over to appreciate a local artisans work.

    My local library does meet the local artists. You might want to try yours, see if they'll do a show, or theme your show around a certain month
