That is beautiful! How about etsy? I don't think I could bear to part with it (and I'm pretty sure on ebay you wouldn't get what it's worth...).
Another option would be local craft fair type things.

Great quilt! The quilted/stitched ducks are great! Do you have photos of your 1st two quilts? I second etsy, although I'd suggest you have more than one item for sale if you go through them. You can also get an idea of what sort of price to set based on what others are selling their quilts for.

Hello fellow quilter!
I always love to hear about new quilters. I sometimes feel that sewing and other types of hand-work are becoming dying arts...this gives me hope!

rainy ducky! I love it.
It has more love and talent in it than you'll ever make in money.

Quilter-biker
I am a quilter and a cyclist. On my cross country trip last year, I tried to visit quilt shops and buy a little fabric to make a memory quilt. I visited an awesome shop right on the route of the Underground Railroad which I did this year!!! I bought some bicycle fabric which is awesome and made some sleep/lounge pants that I LOVE!! In winter, I love to quilt when I can't ride but if the choice is ride or quilt, I ride!! I can quilt at night!
I love the ducky quilt! Great colors.

It actually seems to me like more and more people are reviving the hand-work arts. I'm a knitter and crocheter, and would love to learn to spin and quilt (but haven't taken the plunge yet). At least I hope
