My current project for a customer.
Paisley Splash Elephant reproduction in Grey, Red & Black. I’ll add an inner border and binding. This will be a Wall Hanging.

This chart shows the basic cost of making a 65"x65" throw quilt. I've done several baby quilts with a very basic quilting design (straight lines or tied, because I'm an amateur and haven't mastered curves, circles or free motion yet) that I've gifted to family and friends. But I'm always asked "How much to make me a quilt?" I've never made a quote quite this high, even on a twin size. But those people were "put off" by the estimate.
Fabric is expensive, ranging anywhere from $5 a yard (cheap fabric)on upwards of $25 a yard (high quality printed fabric). Time is expensive too, try recalculating this chart with a minimum wage of $7.25/hr., fabric at $5/yd, (but not the batting). Change the quilting design to $0.10/sq in instead of $0.15.
And remember, it's a piece, made especially for you, that can be handed down to the next generation.

Not great yet, but my first "finished" potholder. It's a leaf design. It was a practice piece.
Binding was not cut on bias and it's too wide. The loop is too big and needs to be on the "stem" of the leaf instead of the tip. It also does not have the Insul-brite batting, just cotton batting. Overall dimensions 8"x13" not including the loop.

Skylanders Lap Quilt in Blue, 31"x36".
Up for sale is a child-size Lap Quilt. The front features Skylanders characters in 100% cotton and the back is a soft blue pattern fleece. I make these quilts in my home in my spare time. These quilts easily goes for $85+. I'm asking $75 for a limited time.
