I have went to many craft fairs as a seller and sold knitted items and charged 3 times the cost and so I do that with my baby quilts. People that understand all the work put into them do not heisatate on the price.

This makes me mad also. I think each Cracker Barrel should put "local artists' items" in their stores!! They could still carry the cheaper souvenir(sp) type items. $200 is a lot for a mass produced item from overseas, even if it was a better quality item!! Just think of how many local items they could sell because of travelers who stop in the area!!

That's pure baloney. No one can give a blanket price (no pun intended) like that. It depends entirely on the quality of the materials, the skill of the maker, the sales record of the maker, the quilting pattern, and several other things that differ for each and every quilt, even if they're identical in size and design.
