I do those on commission only. I do have a pile of table runners that need a home, and they sell for $50-75 and usually take me anywhere from 8-15 hours to make. I'm still not getting a good hourly wage, but I do get a lot of enjoyment from sewing. Recently, I was asked to crochet a baby blanket and so I looked on Etsy to see what the going rate was. Some of them were priced as low as $35.00! The yarn, using every coupon I had, cost $17.00. I really don't understand how people can charge so little. It might as well just be a gift at that point.
