Thank you for the encouragement but they didn't sell at the carnival, infact nothing but 2 of my pincushions sold.

Sorry about your pillowcases not selling. They are beautiful. As a matter of fact, I went yesterday to J. Fabrics checking out material to make some myself. Everyone I know are going to get one specifically made for them. They are awesome. The only thing is that I can't tell any of my friends about them, because they are getting them as gifts. Guess it's a lesson of keeping my mouth shut. Thanks for the great idea. I'll keep you posted on my progress. Deb

Are you going to hold on to them and try another carnival? Maybe one closer to Christmas? I wouldn't give up, you did a beautiful job and deserve to have some sales.

They are very colorful. I also plan to make some as gifts. I am curious about the price though. It seems much fabric is more than $5 per yard if it has a high thread count and so $8.50 seems a bit low. Maybe thread count isn't a factor, but I love the soft hand of the higher thread count cotton. Good Luck! You should do well.

Just letting you know that the carnival was yesterday and that I still have all of the pillow cases. All I sold was 2 pincushions.

I am sorry that you did not sell any pillow cases. Don't give up. Maybe a Christmas craft fair would be an idea to consider.
