    Sorry to hear that :cry: Your thing are very nice. Did everyone else not sell??? Been in your shoes. Most of the time people just want something different. It has nothing to do with your work. Trust me. do you have a Flea Mkt that you could sell them??

    Well, any lack of sales was certainly not your fault!
    You did a great job on all your items. Love your gift bags!
    Craft fairs can sometimes be a big disappointment, but the next one may sell like hotcakes. :thumbup:

    I love your stuff especially the pin cushions,...a hint add some velcro to the bottom of them and try to sell.. Its hard to find for your wrist and when pinning the quilts to a frame like I do you really need to be able to have the pins move with you...how much are they? I may but one from you?

    I just love those pincushions. And the rest of the projects were really nice too. I am sorry that your sale was a bust.
