It is always hard to get your monies worth from a handmade item, unless you are famous. In the custom sewing business, people always asked me why I didn't try to sell my handmade creations ...I tried..but after adding the materials and atleast $20 hour min. It should be $40.00 hr) the item cost so much no one could afford it. It's not worth it! And I was fast at my sewing. i did figure out that getting a custom order was better. They paid for the fabric, I added my time. It still was alot of work, with very little profit if any. Ordinary people will not spend that much money on something handmade. you need to find the market of people that ARE willing and capable of paying. Please send me that list when you find it!! :lol:
