What are the best things about art fairs

The positive feed back from the customers and fellow artisians that what I do is awesome!


Best show ever and why

Greenwhich Village, Rockford Art Museum Show. They took such good care of me, and the people were so responsive to my work.


Worst show ever and why

IVC High School craft fair. The customers breezed by my stuff, didnt ask about my work and only wanted SOS. I lost big money on that one besides!


Who referred you to ArtFairInsiders.com? Please be specific.

I so dont remember! I write down all the suggestions and ideas in my book, and it was one of many suggestions!


What is one fun fact about yourself?

I have 10 children, four adopted. I train Border Collies and compete in herding trials. (thats how I got into fiber)
