Just a quick note. I attended a halloween party tonite, to help raise funds for our volunteer fire dept. I had made 17 pillowcases & each one went for at least $20.00 EACH!!!!!! Yahoo for us. I also made a levi blanket that went for $200.00. Each pillowcase was one-of-a-kind. Sorry I forgot to take pictures, but just wanted to let you know what things went for here. Also made 2 mens shirts that went for $80.00 each. I sell them for 50.00! I am not sure what the total was overall for the dept. But we also raffled off a quilt that I helped make.
The pillowcases were one of a kind. I just used leftover material from the shirts I've made.
So you might rethink the prices if the items you are selling are ONE OF A KIND.
Needless to say, a fun time was had by all!!!!!!!!!!!

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I see no ugly runners. Each of those nice pieces will go nicely in someone's decor. Start now thinking that they are beautiful and they will probably sell. Good luck on the sale. :lol:

Lisa, you crack me up!
I know...what's ugly to us is beautiful to someone else. I had that pointed out to me at the fair. A friend of mine bought 2 of the ugly runners and she thought they were beautiful!
