    I've done some craft shows in the past and it is fun visiting with the people. I'm glad that you enjoyed the experience.

    Oma66, I have the same problem, just can't understand why someone is willing to pay $125 to $200 for a baby quilt at a restaurant just because it says Amish or Mennonite, and then tell me my baby quilts are way too expensive at $50.00. I am not criticizing the Amish or Mennonite, just the mind-set of the shoppers. Maybe it is because when you are on a road trip or a vacation impulse buying is so prevelant.

    So happy that your craft festival was successful. I was in a craft festival this weekend, too. I had a lot of fun and was successful, too. I got to meet & talk with lots of quilters. By the way...your quilts are beautiful.

Actually very little for my labor, but on the orders I took, I explained that it could be up to six months before delivery - half down, balance on delivery. Since I have never sold any quilts or taken orders, I really didn't know what would be the best way, but with half down, if they don't pick up the quilt, I will still have had the fabrics paid for. Does this make sense?
    Very smart!
