Re: going to our first craft show/ fair I suggest taking a lot of business cards to pass out. This a great place to make contacts and promote your business to a large variety of people at once. .....JB

Re: going to our first craft show/ fair Well, let us all know how it went. I'm not certain of when you had this planned, but I'd still like to hear about it. Will this only be only for embroidery or will other crafts/gifts be included as well?
