Craft Show Success!

I didn't do too badly at my first craft show. It was a tiny event at a local church, and the crafts were not the main focus of the day. I think most people spent their money at the auction and then had nothing left for shopping. I am happy with how the day went. Now that I know what to expect, I'm looking forward to doing another show soon. Thanks for your support! The chapel:

I actually SOLD OUT of these bibs:

Wow! Congratulations on your success! I keep wanting to do a craft show - I just need to find one nearby. Thanks for stopping by my blog today!

Congrats on a successful show. Have you been to another show since this one? I would love to know how much you sold your bibs for and more constuction details. I couldn't see how they were finished off and if they had batting inside. They didn't look too complicated from what I could see but are very attractive. What else went well for you? This inquiring mind wants to know. Also any details on what you noticed was selling for others would be great also! Thanks! Shirley

Hi Shirley-
Thanks! I sold the bibs for $6. They do have batting inside, and I just top-stitched around the edges to catch the opening. I also sold quite a few tote bags at this show. It was a really small show at my church, and I was the only person with fabric stuff. Hope this helps-- let me know if you have more questions!
