What to charge??

Are you really sure you want to take a much loved hobby and turn it into a $$ maker. It is so much different when you are sewing because you want to make a project you selected... and sewing/quilting something because you have to. The fun can fade very quickly particulary when you realize there are other projects you would rather be doing.

At least recoup the total cost of the materials if a family member wants a quilt made for them. And only if you are willing to compromise on the cost of labor.
Hey if people own a boat or cabin or vacation home, barter a trade! At least as part of the deal! Just trying to think out f the box.

I agree with everyone's ideas and one thing I think people forget is how much thread you will use. I'm always amazed when I make a quilt at how many spools I go through. Don't forget to add that into your estimate. Thread isn't cheap either.
