    My hairdresser asked me to make a baby quilt for her co-worker's granddaughter. This is only my 3rd attempt at applique. I meandered all over the quilt and tried my hand for the first time with swirls in the border. I've sold several bed sized quilts, but never a baby quilt. Any ideas on what I should charge for this one?

    Really cute! Did you buy the fabric? $50.00-$100.00 but it depends on what you bought plus time.

    I sell a lot of baby quilts. Up to 36x36" (newborn size) $40
    up to 45X45 -$60
    and the size that fits a toddler bed up to 50X60 = 80.00

    I'd like to get more because theycan be a lot of work, but that's about the limit I can get here.
