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.

Tartan, I didn't actually sell either of the quilts in the photo, however one lady does want one of the Oklahoma Centennial quilts, but had to talk to her husband first. She may call back and maybe not. No, my asking price is not a "stack" of money. 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?
