Default New to Group

I'm new to the group and started quilting after inheriting Mom's Long Arm Quilt Machine. I fell in love with sewing and making quilts. I recently made a king size quilt from 4 Jelly Rolls. It has 2 borders with mitered corners and took 3 yards of 108" backing. All material purchased by customer. It took be about 35-40 hours labor. What is a fair price?

Welcome from Texas. Not sure about pricing of quilts but others that have sold quilts will surely come along to help you on the pricing. Learn to take pictures & post them here so we can see some of your lovely quilts. We LOVE pictures on this board.

Welcome from Ohio! I don't know what to tell you about the price for your quilt. Sorry. Like everyone else, I'd love to see pictures of your quilts.

Welcome from Ontario, Canada. Tally up the cost of all your fabric, batt, thread and then try to find someone who will actually pay for your time. I have yet to get what a quilt is worth, I just give them as gifts. Good luck!
