When I do a show, they are simple to do, but look much harder and the quilting is nice and $650. is my price but I have come down to $550. Mind you, these are quilts I can do completely in less than a week. Thats what I do for shows and I generally sell out.
hobo, at those prices, how much is actual profit?
