    Default selling quilts online

    I make quilts during the year and sell most of them during the Christmas season. I am thinking of selling some online if I can find a reputable website to sell from. I am wondering if any of my fellow members on this board sell quilts online? The only websites I'm familiar with is the one that I go to for tropical fish. I don't know anything about the ones for hand-crafted items.

    Some folks sell on Etsy. That is a crafter's market. It's only twenty cents to list an item for 3 months.

    Besides selling online, have you tried marketing through interior decorators? Their prices would be so much higher.

    Default Selling quilts on line

    My grandddaughters teacher has a daughter that just went live with a site to compete with ebay and etsy. She charges $10.00 a month, no other fees, up to a certain number of items. Once you reach that number then the charge goes up a few dollars. It's only been live since right around Christmas. Might want to check it out. She's using the money to help less fortunate.

    Default Selling Quilts Online

    I'm not sure why your question from last year popped up in my Google Alerts, today (1.25.12) but am happy to reply to it. I am a new member of this Board and I provide an online venue for Canadian and American quilters to sell their work. You'll find me at - http://www.quiltsforsale.ca - and can contact me from there, or here, with any questions you may have. My Quilts for Sale site has been in operation since 2005.
