I'm a quilt horder and unless I'm asked to sell my work for my price I will not under cut my creativity, time and effort. I learned my lesson years ago and sold one of my better works for a less than a worthy price and I regret it. The general public are not educated in the handcrafted arts it doesn't matter if its broom making, basket making, wood turning or iron forging- the flood of cheap reproductions from over seas has really hurt the american craftsperson and artist. Some areas do better than others depending on the income level of the location. It's a flip of the coin. Congrats to anyone who finds the right purchaser for the right price. Moosegirl
