I have been sewing & quilting for over 40 yrs. Years ago I sold alot more handmade items & quilts. Now a days its very hard to even get your money back that you have invested in an item don't even mention labor, ppl laugh at that! It is a shame that ppl cant see value. Unless you are selling a quilt that is considered vintage you will most likely lose $ just to move it! Your best bet is local shops, county fairs & craft shows & venues but there are set up fees attached to those. You could invest more money & not sale anything! China & Asian countries make things so cheap they corner the market & dictate price! Most ppl buy for price not quality anymore!
