    You'd only have to make a couple queens and sell them for a minimum of $500 each and have your goal reached.

    Best of luck to you. I am just finishing some of mine to sell over the summer at a local shop. I hope I sell at least a few. I will be thinking of you and sending good wishes.

    Contact your local interior decorator. Show an example of your best work and give her a business card, price list and pictures of examples. Give her your very best turn around times, prices for pillow shams , throw pillows, etc. nursery room sets, etc. You probably could have the $1000 with one good customer, at least 2 depending on what they order. Even if they call it a comforter, it is a quilted sandwich, right?

    You could also consider selling just the tops, might help speed up things. Good luck, will be watching your progress
