Sorry, I can't help you with that, but I can tell you that my quilt guild has a "boutique" at the quilt show. What that is is a small store we set up and sell items we receive as donations. We plan this well in advance and our members and anyone else who would like donate items which we then sale at pure profit. It is a ton of work, but the members love it. Because everything is donated, we can sell things at very low prices. Ex: current quilting magazines for 3 for $1.00, fat quarters for 50 cents and material for $1.50 a yard. The boutique is a big draw and brings a lot of money into the guild. I believe our last show cleared over $3000.00. It is tons of fun to go shopping at such cheap prices, and a great feeling when you walk out with a huge bag of quilting items for just a few dollars.
