Hi Terri: I've heard that when someone sells their handmade items they charge DOUBLE the cost of making it plus assign a dollar amount for time spent. I went to a quilt show last week end and some of the quilts for sale at the show were selling from $275 to $985. More than I could ever afford for a quilt and more than I would ever even consider paying but for some people who want and appreciate handmade and are decorating their homes they will gladly pay the price for what they want. As I said, I couldn't pay those prices and I've never sold anything I've made so I'm no expert.
