Quilt Price Calculator
Do you get asked a lot how much this quilt would be worth? Or do you want to sell a few of your quilts because the quilt cabinet is overflowing?
This little tool may help you to determine the price for your quilt. It uses a simplified equation to calculate the material costs and then determine the sales price by applying a factor. The assumption for this shortcut is, that in many cases the triple of material costs is a good estimate for the retail price. Double material costs may work for wholesale options or a commission from a friend or relative. Maybe it is also an option for an “On Sale” price.
The tool calculates the quilt size (square inches), breaks that down to an individual patchwork unit assuming basic rectangles, and then adds seam allowance to that rectangle. After it multiplies that unfinished rectangle (sq. inch) with the piece count to get to the sum of yardage used. The calculation is done twice – once for the top and once for the back. Notions are added separately.
