we have one every year at our quilt show.
not only is there tables to sell various items made by members but many of the quilts in the show are for sale also.
this is the only reason why i do the shows - to sell my stuff.
i don't need a ribbon for my work - a ribbon doesn't pay the bills around my house - i need cash.
so every year i have quilts/bags/runners/dyed fabric to sell along with my show quilt. plus i give out my card for people who wish to commission something specific.
