    I just made one for my cousin who commissioned me to make her an oversized quilt. I used the square in a square pattern. She gladly paid me $400.00 and absolutely loves it.
    Good luck!

    Ive seen quilts go as high as $800 and well over $1000 for hand quilted. However there has to be a demand for it. Some buyers know their worth and others (non quilters) think its just pretty but not 800 dollars pretty..

    all the cost of your fabrics, batting, backing. thread too.
    then maybe hours spent working on it. depending on who you are selling to and how much you think they would pay, $200.00 to $400.00 at least.

    The quilt is spectacular! Quilts of that caliber are priced anywhere from $800 to $1500 at a local quilt show. It depends upon how badly you want to sell it!

    Afraid I haven't a clue as to pricing but I can tell you it's a beautiful quilt. Good luck.

    Put it up for sale for the price you feel good about. If it doesn't sell you can always lower the price. Good luck

    It's a beautiful quilt. It's king size and I don't think I'd take less than $500 for it, if it were mine.
