You can make quilts and sell them, but you have to be firm in your pricing if you expect to make any money. A lot of people will tell you 3 times the cost of materials for a labor price. I always get the money up front for all materials....and don't forget thread and batting. With the economy being what it is, I try not to gouge the customer and charge what I think is fair for both of us for labor. You will most likely not get minimum wage for the hours that you put into a quilt, but for me, quilting is therapy so it doesn't matter. Most customers have no idea of the actual cost of materials that go into a quilt, but they love the idea of having a quilt that is unique, so the final $$$ is a shocker to them. Good Luck
