Hi
I have decided to take the plunge, and try to sell Potholders, Miniature Quilts, and a few other quilty items. I'm thinking I want to sell on ebay, ecrater, maybe Etsy, and a farmers market that I am going to. I'm sharing a table with someone else, so I don't have a lot of cost involved in that one.
So, number one, with potholders, is it okay to use polyester thread, cotton fabric, and polyester batting? I talked to a lady who has been selling quilts, potholders and things like that for years, and she said use 3 layers, and it works just fine.
What kind of a price should I put on them? I'm thinking 5 dollars, as it is a pineapple block, and takes a lot of time to make, then to quilt(I'm doing stitch in the ditch) and then to bind.
Mini quilts, I'm thinking if it is hand quilted, 30 dollars, if it isn't 20 dollars?
Any other places I should think about selling my things, and will they go?
Any other tips, or pricing ideas? I'm trying to get some more money for fabric!
Thank you
