I remember the first quilt I sold. I had bought a kit off e-bay. It was a crib size baby quilt that I was going to make for my future baby. I paid $35 for the quilt kit. I got it pieced together and I had taken it to church to show it iff to the ladies. I had no intention of giving it away. One of the ladies absolutely loved it and wanted to buy it for someone's baby shower. I didn't know what to charge, so I just asked for what I had paid for the kit. Turns out I had enogh fabric left from the kit to make another one. Basically, I got a quilt for free!! I ended up giving that one away too, so I never did get a quilt for me. I have used the pattern 2 other times, so I think I got my money's worth. Congratulations on that first sale!! may there be many more in your future!
