I am selling a quilt that I pieced but it was quilted by a quilter with a long arm who does this as a business. Of course, I paid her for her work.
My question is this: Is it customary to give the quilter part of the sales price? I have never sold a quilt before and have no idea if there is a protocol to this. Thanks.

If you paid the quilter for her work, then no, the sales price is yours. If you did not pay her, then I would say you probably should share with her. My mom and I share doing pieces and if we sell one, we share the $$.

I thought on a bigger scale - You wouldn't give your plumber part of the proceeds if you sold your house. He was paid for the work he did, and that concludes your business with him. Congratulations on selling your work of art!
