    I think YOUR pricing is about right..have you searched them out on etsy/ebay?

    just do not forget the following info from Penny's website!

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Making bags for resale?

    Can I make your tote bags for resale?
    Yes, as long as you are making them by hand on your home sewing machine and the bags are not mass-produced. We also request design credit when selling the bags. This can be a simple as a card included with the bag that says "Designed by Quiltsillustrated"

    I got $40 for the mini. It isn't cheap to make (or to replace your stash if that's what you used).

    I think what you have for prices is right on! I think most that I've seen for sale are around that price.

    I sell simplier bags locally & @ craft shows. I started out @ 25, soon went to 30 & settled @ 35. People who know quality will pay the price. Don't sell yourself short. You always can take something off the price if you want to. Let us know how it goes. I also found out that some items in the 8-10 dollar range sell well - coin purses, book covers, simple wallets etc.

    There is a HUGE craft show here every fall..prices are not cheap I think you are well in line with going prices...you can always go lower if you "want" to.

    this is a good idea... be sure to put a sign up that these are designer bags... might help. however, folks at church craft shows probably don't expect more expensive items like in other venues. best wishes for a good sale.

    Your friend is wrong. My friend, a quilt shop owner says people don't think too much about a purchase until it gets over $40. She vendors a lot at quilt expos

    I think your prices are fair. If it turns out you don't sell that many at that price, then you can always look for another way to market them...like this board for instance, where people know the work and resources that went into making them. Good luck.
