    Your booth looks very cute and colorful. And you had lots of different items. It's just a tough time now. The economy has messed with everyone.

    Your work looks beautiful.... seeing you asked, I feel that the table is a little crowded.... yes, being able to pin some quilts behind you would have helped... and any table runners I would have laid them out flat going the short way across the table... then they can be seen well... well done though....

    Looks good to me. I guess people wanted something for nothing.

    Sorry you only sold one thing. Everything looks great. I just think right now people can't afford much..... Last Craft fair I did was years ago with my MIL. There were more lookers then buyers. A few even said they were there for ideas on things to make themselves.

    I have a few suggestions. I would use white tablecloths/sheets the same on both tables and put them all the way the floor/ground in the front. I would have a wooden drying type rack behind and display any small quilts/runners on it. A few small baskets could be placed on the floor in the front with small items such as potholders, coasters, etc in them and then the rest arranged on the tables.

    Awe, i'm so sorry your sale didn't go well. Your table looks great. My husband used to collect diecast, and sell them at the swap-meet. One thing we found, was the end of the month was always bad time for sales, because people have rent to pay then, and the middle of the month sales were always the best (mid-month pay days), so i would say it was just a bad day for you and the economy. So sorry

    You have beautiful things. The people that didn't buy from you they are the one that missed out. Don't give up!
