I have a beautiful 102x 102 quilt in rainbow colors with green backing, machine quilted. I would like to sell. Where do members of this board sell quilts? Any suggestions?

I have sold on ebay in the past, not recently. Craigslist, or on this board. Always include pictures. Sometimes the classifieds in the local paper when they run free ads. Others will have other suggestions also. Good Luck :-D

There's a classifieds section on the board. However, quilters seldom buy quilts (except for vintage quilts) so ebay, craigslist, or etsy might be better. If there's a quilt show near you, you can often get a better price by showing it there, but the people who put on the show usually take around 30% of the sales price. It sounds high, but they provide a large pool of potential customers and you can increase the asking price.
