Terri, What kinds of things are you going to make for this years show?
I have my soft books like I had last year...my biggest seller. I have about 75 of them and if I can sell ALL of them, that's a profit of $400!!!
I have my totes, will keep them at the same $20 price, maybe they'll sell this year. I will have the mice and a few embroidered towels. The towels didn't go over that well, but once people found out that I made them, they were wanting them. I know have the Submarine Dolphin and the Surface Warfare insignia, so I can make both styles.
I'm planning on some table runners and some coasters.
Not sure what else. That's pretty much what I had last year.
Maybe I'll do some scrappy doll quilts.....can pass them off as baby quilts? NONE of my quilts sold last year. People thought they were too expensive. I had a baby one priced at $50 and a lady wanted me to sell it to her for $20...don't think so. My quilts were priced at pretty much rock bottom with me only making about $30 total on them.
Will just have to see what happens. Need to get projects done for now, then sew, sew, sew for the craft fair.
