WOW! I love your quilts & thread play. So sorry your quilts didn't sell, people just don't understand the value of quilts, even quilters don't always realize how valuable your quilts can be.

Where did you do the craft show? Your work looks fantastic! I'm totally impressed, but since a quilt is a big ticket item and not usually an impulse purchase, it makes sense that people would want to take a business card and buy later, after thinking about it.

Your display was eye catching, & I agree with LynnVT to have business cards made up and give out at times like this... They are really cheap and if you are handy with computer they are really cheap, also people are starting to look for Christmas ideas... Good job.

I agree with this post!!! Maybe just not the right venue to sell items!!!

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL quilting. (It always amazes me that people think the free motion quilting I do, which is no where near as intricate as yours, is done by the machine on its own. Even the people in my quilt guild think I just have a machine that 'does it'. Nope! This is work.)

Someone ask in a thread yesterday, what is fabric art? Just looking at your beautiful work sure gives the perfect answer. You do beautiful fabric art in your quilting and your thread work.

You do such beautiful work. Very impressive. I did really well selling at the 1st craft show I went to, but the ones I did this year I only sold very small items, hot pad holders, aprons, small table toppers, mug rugs, candle mats. I think the buying crowd has a lot to do with it, also.

Your display is wonderful. I am so sorry you didn't make much money. Your quilts are beautiful. I really love the quilt with the tree that is above the pink quilt (and cord).
