    After seeing what they pay for Vera Bradley purses, I don't think your price is too high at all.

    Wonderful bags. I do not think they are worth a penny less than what you plan to ask. However, most people will not pay that much as they don't understand how much it costs to make them....let along the hours spent in the sewing. I, personally, have had several people ask me to make them a purse, but when I tell them just what the fabric will cost, they back out. You will find some that understand and will buy, but probably few. I wish you luck, but don't sell just to get rid of them......get your price!!!! JMHO...:)

    I say go with your gut....do not undersell them...you can always go lower, if you get a "feeling" by listening to the talk at the table when people come by. You can always lower it a bit, but cannot raise the prices while at the table...I am making some things for a craft show in October and I am having the same problem, with pricing....don't want to under sell, but I have been working on things since March. And have been putting a lot of time in on it....Good luck in your sale, hope you sell everything!!!!!

And the vendors want to come back to it every year. This will be my first time doing this or selling anything really. If the price of fabric keeps going up and I want to try this again then I might raise my prices $5 or so. I'll let everyone know how it goes in Nov.
    I made my daughter a purse for Christmas and she works in a medical office. When two of the nurses saw her purse they had a fit and one ordered one and the other ordered 2 and my daughter charged them $55 each and they paid it. I gave them a website to pick out the fabric they wanted. I put beads on my ties and I machine quilt the bottom section of the bag. They were very happy with their purchases.

    Your bags are beautiful and I think your pricing is a little too low, I'd add $5-$10 to each. Also, I must say your kitchen is so very clean and tidy... :)

    I sell my large ones for $50 so I think if you go too cheap people wont buy stick to your price and you can always drop $5 bucks at teh show
