A friend of mine used to make quillows to sell at a place that sold local crafts on consignment. She said she made decent money but never said how much. Someone told me she sold them at $60.00 a piece but that was well over 10 years ago. Another friend made the folded quilt balls to sell. She sold them for $15.00 a piece. I can't imagine paying that much for one, but they do take a lot of time and are not cheap to make. Crafting in general is not cheap. I used to do the crocheted angels for family and friends - then I saw some at a store made in China for less than cost of the thread I used and it just bothered me. When my DD was in Girl Scouts I was in charge of the crafts they made - it was fun.
