Months ago I bought fabric on sale for this quilt. I thought I'd put it in my shop. But when I found out I was having a girl I hurried to make it and thought I'd keep it for myself because I love it so much! But then I had an idea. Why not put it on my shop for a ridiculously high price - much higher than any other baby quilt - and either way I would win with $ or a cute quilt.I added it to my shop on Monday. It sold last night. Can you believe it?! For 145$, I might add! Who spends that much money on baby quilts?! Not that I'm accusing them. I'm pretty glad they did, especially since it cost me around $65 in materials and quilting only.
Anyhoo, now I'm a bit sad I didn't keep it, and Elton is sad since he really liked it, too (amazing!) But now I have some cash to get started on another one :)

Wow! Congrats on the sale and on the girl! It is a beautiful quilt, and well worth the $145!
that is awesome! I guess i would pay 145 if i had money and i didn't know how to craft myself. i mean, you pay insane amounts at stores now a days too. why not support handmade? and when you see something so cute, you just HAVE to get it!
That is pretty amazing! I think your quilt is gorgeous, no wonder someone was willing to pay AnythinG for it! Now you have the cash to make TWO quilts and you can keep one and sell the other for $150 bucks!
Woot woot!!!
... good luck on the next one :)
All your stuff is VERY cute, so I'm sure you'll like the next one too.
me. that's who. but only if the person i am buying it from is as talented as you! i love it!
I love it but I can't imagine spending that much money. Did you quilt it? Did you use a template or freehand it?
Congrats that is great! Did you do the machine quilting or pay someone?
It is beautiful! I am very happy for you! (now make me one-just kidding) very cute quilt :)
I've quilted my own and haven't been satisfied with it, so I found someone pretty cheap to machine quilt this one. I'm working on a King and definitely will NOT do that one myself, either!
