    I don't. I give mine away. People are a lot more critical when they buy things than they are if you give them something.

    sometimes I give them away for a raffle.. then I take the amount as a tax dedution. ( would that be considered 'selling'?) But, mostly, if I give them away it's because I wan tot give that person a gift.

    I sell a few every now and then-mostly they end up being family gifts.

    I have never sold any, but have given loads away as gifts. I have three more ready at the moment and all have recipients.

    Usually I sell ones made upon request. I did sell one at a shop last week. I have given many more away.

    I have given quilts to every friend and family member who would ever want one (or more!) and continue to do so but I also make things to sell. Quilting is becoming my living as well as my hobby. Lucky me! :-D
