Price of this quilt???
1 Attachment(s)
I'm wanting opinions for the price of this quilt. I have never sold one before.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]534139[/ATTACH] It is about 60"x72". I call it a lap/nap quilt. This is not a pieced top - just a piece of fabric with the fleece backing. I have about $10 in it. Plus several hours of work. I want to be fair but would like a little for the hours of work I have in it. Any suggestions? |
I'm confused. You say it's not a pieced top, "just a piece of fabric with the fleece backing" but then you say you've put "several hours of work" in it.

It is very pretty. Was the fabric 45 inches wide before boarders? Wow is looks pieced and is it quilted?
|
have no idea what to ask but its a beautiful quilt!!
|
Its hard to set prices. The only quilt I have ever sold figured out to ~ $9.75 an hour. The customer purchased all of the supplies
|
how many hours of work? what kind of quilting will be involved with it?
are you custom quilting it, or just free motion. You'd charge a lot less because it's not pieced, just a printed piece of fabric. I think we need more information on the quilt before giving you a price. |
Sorry, this is not the finished product. I quilted on all the squares diagonally so it looks pieced. They are 3" squares. My time spent - cutting to size, adding borders, pinning together, quilting diagonally, mitering corners (that was a bugger), self binding with the fleece. I knew it took a good share of a week but I don't keep track of the hours. I can't stay at the quilting part for a long period of time. I didn't expect to sell this one.

Just a rough guess, $40-$50 maybe. You need to determine what your time is worth. Some people don't keep track of time & just triple their materials cost, you said you have about $10 into.... Charge what seems fair/ reasonable to you considering the circumstances that have caused you to be selling it
|
Since it isn't pieced but is quilted extensively I'd ask a minimum of $60.00 to $80.00.
It's quite pretty btw. Love the colors |
Pretty. It would bring about $70 in our auction, I think.
