This is a 45 x 45 inch reversible infant blanket with a cozy flannel side and a soothing satin side, with a fluffy hand crocheted edge. I’ve made many of these for gifts. How would I price this for sale?

I had to laugh about the comments about thongs. My mother was 91 when she passed away, but just before that, she heard the word thongs and thought they were flip-flops; they were to her. When I explained that the term no longer meant flip-flops, she was really disgusted.
The blanket is beautiful. I think the suggestion about checking it out on e-bay is really a good one.

Anybody who wanted thongs never had to wear cheap cotton torture panties with no leg elastic back in the 1950s.

It is unfortunate however, that there was a small quilted blanket I gave my girls recenlty. It was my blanket from when I was a baby – I carried that thing thing everywhere, it was everyhting to me. But when my daughters got it, they were less impressed than I was. I knew every scrap that was on that quilt, I could match the scraps to other furniture or clothing in my grandma’s house. That blanket meat a lo me but for my daughters it only been used as a blanket to lay upon the grass when they play outside. No one sleeps with it.

It might mean more later. Maybe you could discreetly get it back and save it.

That is lovely. So much work (and love) goes into making something like that, I would have no clue as to how to price it.

probably too much work to sell.

It is a very difficult one. Perhaps just sell the odd one or two, :-)

When it comes to selling items such as these – you have to do your research if you want to sell them at a decent, market price. Look on eBay for similar items being sold and check how much they are currently listed for and how much they have sold for in the past. Also check other online markets such as Amazon, local swap meets, etc. This will give you a broad view of the price you can charge depending upon where you choose to sell it. Personally, I have found that handmade items such as quilts and blankets and doilies and ceramics – although they are worth a pretty penny on various markets – I often end up giving them to someone I care about because I would rather their meaning be shared with someone else than merely sell them for a profit.

Factor in your time and materials. I would have no idea, but I would imagine you could fetch a pretty um, quarter for them.

I need to ruin some more for you. How about thongs?

See, that word never bothered me because thongs were just flip-flops when I was growing up and the other things were G-strings. So when people started calling them thongs, I just thought they were too prudish to call them G-strings. So, nice try, but that word has no effect.

Beautiful. I’m not great at pricing, but going by what I’ve seen at craft fairs for baby products, I’d guess somewhere around $50
