It has gotten cold enough here in Tucson that, at least late at night, I have to wear my quilted jacket
Occasionally, when I wear it, someone will ask if it is made by hand, but no one, at least as of now, has ever asked if I could make one for them. I would say yes, but that I don't think they would not want to pay the price I would charge. Unless it is my brother, sister, or "significant other," I would most certainly expect to be compensated more than just however much it would cost to make the jacket.
I would have to buy: 1. ~2-3 yards of material for what I would in normal quilting call the backing (dont know if it has a name in garment making) for the large peces such as the sleeves, front pieces, back pieces, etc, 2. The same amount of batting, 3. The cool stuff I made the yoke, the waistband, and the collar out of, though I doubt I could get the neat fabric with multi-colored polka dots as I think that was part of a sheet that I cut up, 4. a bunch of fat quarters for the patchwork part, 5 any acessories such as the snaps, and 6. the pattern itself. My best guess is that all that would come to probably $30 to $50,at least, and unless I am making it as a present, I would fully expect to be paid for the materials.
I also do not not think it would be worth my time unless I made at least $50 to $100 over the cost of the supplies, and that makes the absolute minimum I would charge $80 to $150 dollars, and I just can't imagine anyone actually paying that. I don't know if that is a common labor charge for this type of work, but that is how much I would have to get to make it worth my time. Perhaps that is because I have the skills to make one and would not have to pay someone else to do it.
I guess my question is, what is the normal price for such work. I did a bit of a Google search, and found prices lower than what I would charge, and prices higher than I would charge. However, I had no real way of telling which are made in a sweatshop somewhere(and thus I suppose technically hand made), and ones that are actually hand made.
