I have to agree with most of the posters. Making money on hand sewn items is very hard to do. If you want to keep some of your mom's stuff, do it because it's what you want. If you need the money worse, sell them. It will take a while to get to where you are good enough at quilting to sell things and even then, the money isn't very good. If you want a job that you can make money while going to school, delivering pizzas can be very lucrative. Good luck.
