I have sold lots and lots of quilted items, especially at our church Harvest Fair. However, for some reason, even though this is to raise money for the church, people feel that it's donated so they don't have to pay much. I priced the table runners at $25, way too little, raised it to $35 last year, wall hangings $35-40, baby quilts $45 -50, and usually people make a beeline for my quilted items. I've also made a dozen or so raffle quilts for the fair, and one or 2 of my quilts raised over $1,000 to $1,200. This is just a guideline for our community, but there is always someone that wants to get it for nothing, but I stand firm now, but I didn't always. Hope this helps a tiny bit.
