I don't think a box of fabric, even great fabric, pays for the hours it takes to construct a quilt. The fabric would have to be worth about $300.00. That workes out to $12.00 per hour which is cheap.
That is what I charged for this particular quilt.
This is a most sensible response and even so the quilt labor is VERY cheap. I would not do it for 12 an hour.
