Suggestions

These are just suggestions of types of quilts that seem to sell well. I'm sure you can think of more. They are listed here in no particular order.

Please read the tutorials on binding and sleeving as a well-made quilt is more important than its theme.

DO sign your quilt and fill out the registration paperwork completely as requested. Many buyers make a decision about your quilt based on what you write about it as well as what it looks like.
