Eddie, It's absolutely gorgeous. DO NOT sell yourself short! Are you kidding.....$3.84/hour, ha....not even minimum wage. If I were to do something like that, labor intensive, I'd be pricing it at least $1200-1400, probably more. But then again, I live in California so we pay more for everything it seems. I can go to Macys and easily spend in excessive of $1000 for bed covers.

Plus the time to make the top itself and then about 30 hours of quilting. So if we say 80 hours, the price that I was thinking of asking comes out to only about $3.84 per hour in labor - I just don't want to sell myself short.
