What are your time and skills worth? Is your product really unique and well made? If so, do not apologize for pricing it accordingly. If you were to pay an electrician, plumber, lawyer, etc., for his or her services he or she certainly wouldn't apologize either and you would pay much more than that. Yes, quilting/sewing is enjoyable but if you are interested in selling you have to think like a business person.
