this is my very favorite hand quilted item
I have ever made
and I am debating on placing it in
I value your opinion and ideas
(in many ways I have come to rely on them)
A few thoughts before I list:
I thought I might run a price by you.
I am going to ask $40.00 + $5.00 for shipping
I hope that isn't tacky,
talking such personal details through my blog.
But my heart is so deeply attached and I would love
to hear your thoughts on the matter.
Personally Trish, I would keep this one for yourself. You can always make another to put in your shop. You know you would be heart broken if you got rid of it. I would be. :)
ReplyDeleteKeep it! Your quilting stitches are beautiful - so even.
ReplyDeleteI am new here. I've met you only a few days ago... , but I say keep it! If you have the doubt it means something!
ReplyDeleteKeep it and make something else.
ReplyDeleteKeep this one. You can always make another like it for your shop, and I would machine quilt it for your shop! You would never be able to recoup the time it takes to hand quilt in your item price. Just my 2 cents :)
ReplyDeleteIt is such a cute topper. I would hate to part with such a cute one. But, someone else would love it too! If you aren't really sure that it is something that you will use again and again, you might just sell it to someone who would.
ReplyDeleteI say keep this one and make a another much like this one. This might be you niche. I think the price is right, a non quilter will think it is a steal. You might try some seasonal table toppers, everyone needs things for the upcoming holidays. So get you little fingers ready, you are coming into a good season for selling. Be sure to show a close-up of your stitches, that sells the quilt.
ReplyDeleteI agree with the other ladies- keep it in the family. I bet it makes you smile every time you look at it!
ReplyDeleteKeep it and make something like it for your shop. If it's your favorite, then you have to keep it! ;)
ReplyDeleteI'm with everyone else--keep it. This is really beautiful, and the hand stitching is perfect. I don't know what size it is, but I feel like $40 is low.
ReplyDeleteI love it! I would keep it & make another for the shop :)
ReplyDeleteOh my dear friend, keep it! Gift it to yourself. You can always make something else for the shop. Listen to your heart...and your hands. xoxo
ReplyDeleteOh dear. Don't give away something that you treasure this much. I totally agree with the above. Keep this one, make a machine quilted copy for the shop. My husband always says to charge more for my quilts when I get a custom order, but even though people love handmade items it is hard to get the full worth of the love and work you put into it in a price. This piece is gorgeous. i am sure someone would by it but you will probably regret it as it has a sentimental value as well. It is absolutely a keeper.
ReplyDeleteI would keep and treasure it and make another one for the shop.
ReplyDeleteTrish you have to keep this wee treasure for yourself, make another for the shop. Sometimes its just nice to be able to treasure something!!!

I think the price is right for a hand quilted topper. I have found that the things that sell best in my shop are the ones that I love the best! I put them in with the thought that if it sells I can always make another and if it doesn't, lucky me! I get to keep it:>)Win win.
ReplyDeleteif you love it, you should keep it. Make a similar one for your shop. I'm sure someone will buy and your price isn't unreasonable for such a sweet item made with such care!
ReplyDeleteTrish
ReplyDeleteI think it's unanimous you should keep this one. You can make something similar for your shop, if you like. I wouldn't part with it, it looks perfect with your family photo on it-like their meant just for each other!
It's gorgeous! If you love it that much - keep it!!! The hand quilting is fantastic!
ReplyDeleteYou need to keep this one! Make another or something similar to sell. This one means so much to you!
ReplyDeleteIf you love it, you should keep it. It's so pretty and with hand quilting, at that price it will be snapped up in no time.
ReplyDeleteI husband always tells me...if it's irreplacable, keep it. I'm a little late reading this post, but I sincerely hope you kept it for yourself. It's beautiful!
