I am a stay at home mother of three little girls, and to make a little extra spending money I decided to sell some things on Etsy and possibly at craft shows too. I understand this can be difficult as people like to compare crafts to items mass produced and found at Walmart which only cost pennies to make. I am testing the water a bit here as far as pricing and what to make, but I was wondering if anyone here has had success with this and what kind of prices they ask? I have a crib/toddler bed quilt 51" x 31.5" listed for $92. I have researched similar quilts on Etsy and my prices seem to be comparable, but I think the quilting on some of mine make the items unique, and I use very good materials for all of my quilts - which does add to the price a bit.

Just wondering if anyone has any tips, suggestions, experiences they could share? You can visit my shop, the link is in my signature. I don't have much up yet. Do my prices sound right? Experiences with Etsy?
