My daughter made the high school cheerleading squad and just as with any sport, there are a lot of fundraisers and events to raise money. One thing we are doing is having a booth at our local Potato Festival in August. The volunteers are organizing a booth to sell items with the school colors.
I volunteered to make some quilted items to sell and I found a nice tablerunner pattern on Quiltbug.com. It is a pretty pattern and I saw pictures from some of our members on the board who used this pattern to make runners for church bazaars, etc.
I figure that these will be about 15" x 40" finished - my question is (because they will probably ask me) - how much to charge? I don't want to overprice them and I am donating all the time and materials, but they should be worth something. Anyone out there with experience in making items to donate and sell and an idea on pricing? I might include some tabletoppers if I have time, maybe some placemats too. (Boy, am I ambitious - trying to finish my black and white 'Think Outside the Box' quilt for the Durham Fair as well, lol!!!!)
