Bargello $60

The four block log cabin is 12" square... so with borders that could be offered in a variety of sizes. I only have so much time...so I wanted to make what I hoped would sell/be most popular.
I have done a lot of craft shows in my lifetime. I have learned that you need to have more variety in sizes and less quantity of one size. You devalue your work with a high volume of one thing. If you have a lot of one thing, only put out a few and replace them as they sell.

Your prices are in line with your supplies and time. Eyes will roll when they don't understand that. I used to think quilt prices were ridiculous until I made my first one. Anyway, that is my experience for what it is worth. I hope you do great!.
Thank you!! You've given me much to consider. I have very little experience with shows, so am eager for any advice I can get. I will add smaller log cabin toppers! :thumbup:
