A couple of months ago, a speaker at the Guild meeting, was a lawyer and maybe still is, she designs wall hangings. Anyways she gave a talk, that was meant to scare us, I am sure, copying patterns...a no no, except for personal use only. If you sew a quilt and sell it, you are playing against the rules. Now, if I could sew fast enough, I would be tempted to sell a quilt. With everything I do, I can barely get my own sewing done. Not sure how you get around all of it. Good luck.

Create an etsy site. www.etsy.com It is a site to sell handmade things and such. I started one less than a month ago and I have sold 5 toddler back packs thus far. I haven't made anything in the form of quilts to put on there but it might be worth a shot. You can create your own profile and have your own little shop with your inventory. Then they also have feedback so buyers can rate you and hopefully create more sales. Just something to look into. You can also just browse that website and see what others are selling and for how much and get an idea as to what things are selling for. good luck
