    I have done lots of craft shows and my suggestion to you is to make your booth "U" shaped, with an opening on each side to sit. That way you get people "into" your booth. I used 8' x 4' lattice pieces with a hinge inbetween so you can stand them up. Or sit a wooden clothes rack on top the table to hang the small quilts or wall hangings. Table toppers are selling at my Amish friend's house, also wall hangings with birds on. The hunting scenes, the bear and deer, also sell good. For some reason, the Sunbonnet Sue is selling right now. I guess the older people think it reminds them of days gone by. Have fun with your daughters. Also, I usually have something small, under $10, that sells good, because it ends up paying for your table. Like potholders, or small purses. Purses are really selling here in DE.
