I have made art jewelry & sold rather successfully at an art festival in Tucson. I’ve been told that my hand knitted scarves could be sold as well. However, my true ‘want’ is to sew rainbow quilts & make rainbow candles to sell in Chicago’s gay neighborhood, called ‘Boy Town’. My plan is to start with Throws that I can make for much less expense then full quilts & use that money to start making some actual quilts & then use that money to be able to buy beads to make high-end rainbow jewelry or to do the Candles… After getting into the ‘gay’ market, I’m thinking of trying out ‘Goth’ & ‘leather’ culture products… Like making pillow covers out of bandanas in “Flagging” colors… (Tech a gay product as well but a bit more leather.) I guess what I’m asking is: Do you think there is a market for my ideas? Would you buy such a product? How much would you pay for a rainbow quilted fleece throw? (I'll make all summer to sell in Autumn) Any advice? Thx!

i would… :p
I can remember when Boys Town was a place for the unwanted youth of America, by Father Flanigan..rent the movie
oh boy what a mess, society has done in creating a new norm
That sounds really cool! I would like the idea or a rainbow fleece blanket… I’m not sure how much I’d pay for it, 20-25 dollars, perhaps? Maybe more?
I think there’s a market for it, definitely. I would buy stuff like that.
Go for it!
I LOVE RAINBOW STUFF!!!! im a big fan of GAY PRIDE!! WOOT!! yep id buy it… and because its hand crafted stuff you can charge a lil more to cover supplyes and stuff.. also make a lil off of the shipping.. so somewhere between your cost of making it and shipping you should find your product price!
