Successful Craft/Art Fair
I finally had a very successful day at a craft fair this past Saturday. Sold all my seasonal table runners, potholders and casserole covers. Now I have another fair this Saturday and I will need to hide in my quilt room for a week to make more. At l least now I have a good reason (not that I need one) to quilt all week. Wish I didn't have to go to my regular job. Wonder what my boss would say if I brought my sewing machine with me to work.

I also do craft fairs. May I pick your brain? I have not been very successful with what I sell, aprons, potholders, bibs, cassorle carriers. What is the best way to have a good sale? Please PM me as I really need to know.

Congratulations on a good show! I went to one in Sandwich, IL this past weekend..it was so well attended and the crafts were outstanding. I hope the crafters made a lot of money! One booth had a line out the "door"...it was mittens made from old wool sweaters (washed and shrunken) and they were lined with flannel. $28 a pair..Yep, I now own a pair and will wear them on my walk every day when it gets cold. How is that for an idea for you?
