Those are just beautiful. Your prices are very reasonable, they may even be too low. Great job on all.

Your travel pillows are very reasonable. I made three last year for my DD and two of her friends that we were vacationing with. The adults said that they wished I'd made more. But I don't think I'd have sold them for only $3. Very nice.

Nice - but have you figured the price of materials plus the time it took you to make the pillows? You MIGHT be cheating yourself!

Yes they are bookworms! I need to add some eyes or something so people don't wonder....

And I fear pricing things too high...I just don't want to have the stuff I worked to make sit there! lol But maybe I'll raise the prices a tad and see what happens...thanks!

I make travel pillows too, always on the lookout for kid's size pillows in good condition, I make the removable covers and I cover them in fleece. I charge $4 for them. I think $3 is a little low, and $5 seemed a little high, $4 seemed to have just the right "psychology" to it.

At a quilt show recently they had a country store and the quilts were marked between $25-$30. I thought that was very reasonable.

Was wondering myself about the bookworms. :-)

Hope you do well with sales.

Everything you have made is wonderful!! :D I wouldn't know how to price things, but I am sure you will sell out nicely. Thank you for sharing your craft fair projects with all of us.
