The candle rugs were not quilted they were large circles of felt with either felt gingerbread men or snowmen appliqued around the edge...kind of like a mini tree skirt. They were cute but I couldn't justify the price...$15.50 for one when she was selling a quilted wallhanging (18" X 36") for $7.50.
I didn't see many quilted/sewn items either. Runners were going for $20-$25 and pillowcases were $8 each...or should I say "not going for"... nothing seemed to be selling, I think the economy is really slowing down the sales and the quality at the craft shows.
