I am making pillow cases for a Craft fair in Sept. What fo you think I should charge? Should I sell singly or by the pair?
Any suggestions would be helpful. Thanks

I saw them in a quilt shop in Ohio - -up to $25 per pair depending on fabric used.
I think price singles and a little better price per pair. Some people want just one for kids in twin size beds, they especially like sports , car and bugs for boys and flowers and dolls etc for girls. Lots of luck, have fun with your venture.

$15 each or $25 for a pair. For kids designs, singles is better.

I would pay $12. I've seen some nice pillow cases, especially those that are made of two different but coordinating fabrics.

I'd have some of both. Single's with kids prints and a set with more "grown up" prints.

That sounds like a perfect price. Mine usually cost $6 or less for materials - three colors - body, band & accent. The time it takes to make them adds up quickly. I usually do it assembly line fashion. Cutting... Then pinning, then sewing, a bunch at a time.

Depending on fabric and size, $10 - 12 single and $18 - 20 pair. Give a deal if they buy two pair - throw in a single for half price.
