I suggest you go to http://huntersdesignstudio.com/ew-worth-it-2/ and read the articles. She has pricing forms that are very helpful.

it is impossible to keep up with all your time and the cost and amount of fabric used so I GENERALLY start with $75 sq. yd figure length times width in inches, divide by 1296 (inches in a yard) times $75. then I consider any discount I may want to give or if it was a real PIA I may add more to it, but that's where I start. and yes I have a lot of unsold quilts that are made to my taste and may never be sold but when someone asks me to make one that's how I explain my pricing, if they mention WM or TJM I say then go buy one there and you can have one just like thousands of other people. very few people have backed out.

I have had people request that I know are unable to afford one of my quilts- I am honest with them- and sometimes they wind up with one gifted to them down the road. I would rather give one away than lower the worth/value/ cost of my quilts.
