Lori S.....that's a great list and very good advice. I have done craft shows since the late 70s and if I may add one thought: even tho it's incredibly difficult to come up with an original idea, try to have one item that's so unique (in fabrics or design) that will sell enough to cover the cost of your space. Your personal 'doorbuster' but be prepared to see it at many of the booths or tables the next time you go to one of these. The rental fees for fairs have skyrocketed and losing money is a heartbreaker and very discouraging. I had one item that sold out almost immediately and people came back year after year asking for it......in multiples. I think the only reason it wasn't copied is because people didn't want to take the time to add the fine details back then.
