The only way you can get close to what it cost to make it: donate it. Keep track of every cent you spent on the fabric, batting, thread, tack on a bit for electricity and you can take the total donation off your income tax under 'donations'.

Some nice baby quilts are sold on Etsy and from comments on other forum which closed down. People there mention baby quilts might be more lucrative as new parents might pay higher price for a baby quilt.
And other place I read someone said have the client buy the fabrics/thread and then charge a make-it/labor/work hours price.

People who DO NOT sew do not know what is involved.
I tried to sell and in my area there is a PERSON who bums material and makes quilts and sells them for $25.
You cannot compete with that.
The problem is that they do not know what fabric is in the quilt.
She will use anything and tell them it is 100% cotton.

In general, selling something is already good earnings. I realized this when my best friend advised me a site where you can make money without spending a lot of time on it. For example, I sell some things on Amazon for a higher price and make a profit from it. There are many options for part-time work , so guys who want to make money without spending a lot of time on it, then I advise you a site that will help you with this. In addition to my main job, I also do this business and have a fairly large profit
