Most people don't want to pay what a quilt is really worth..But i would check Pinterest or Esty for some ideas. A friend asked me to make her a lap quilt, 45 x 60. Made a four patch all Moda fabrics from my stash.

Fabric for top= 2.5 yd small squares, large square, border and binding
Backing 1.5 yd
batting crib size
So, 4yds @ $9= $36. Batting $3.50 LA Quilting $40.00 ==79.50

She asked my quilting friend how much she should pay me because I had used fabric from my stash..
Anyway my quilting friend roughly calculated the yardage and came up with $75.00 because she mentioned that I had to have purchased that fabric at some time.

So she paid me $75.00. Because she was a friend I would have done it for nothing but she did not consider my time to make.

I hope someone buys your quilt.
