Those are nice. It's surprising where quilts will show up, if we are tuned in to noticing them.

Since the stitches are big and the fabric is stiff, it's probably going to shrink like crazy. And since it's only 40" square, it's not big enough to use as a quilt. But it would make a pretty wall hanging or table topper. I probably would not pay over $20 for one, if that -- but then I'm really CHEAP!! :lol: :lol:

Beautiful Quilts!!! Thanks for sharing with us!!! :D :D :D
I'm not sure about the pricing, though....

Nonono, Joyce, That is what I thoght, USD20. you are not cheap.
The shopowner suggested me it was US40. I was bugged with it.
So I wanted to ask the ladies on here how you feel.

thanks

You can tell the shop owner (for me) that he's a little crazy and trying to make too much money from someone else's labor....Take him one of your quilts and show him what a REAL quilt looks and feels like and then tell him it will cost him a lot more than US$40 :twisted: :twisted:

Youme, you could make on e much pretier that that, I think!!

Yup, you could make a much prettier one for $20.
I'm thinking that is one of those mass produced ones, especially if it's machine stitched with big stitches.

i was going to say $15.00. how much do you love it? you could probably duplicate it with inexpensive poor quality cottons and inexpensive ribbons. are you sure it isn't just the colors you like?

edit: i just looked at the close-ups. they look like poly "brocades". sometimes you see them at fabric stores in the lining department. you would only need 1/8 yard of several colors to duplicate it. the ribbons look like gift ribbons.

i like them but it hard to put a price on it but you should see how much they want and buy what you can afford but i wouldn't go $20.00 myself
