How much is your time worth? Can you estimate how many hours you will need to put into each quilt? Divide the price by the number of hours, and you may be amazed at how you are undervaluing your time. Workers at McDuck's accummulate this much money simply by working regular, steady hours at minimum wage. Quilts require skills that many people do not have, so even minimum wage is really too little per hour.
