I have found that selling your cross stitching doesn’t bring in much money for the time it takes to stitch but if you still want to sell them ebay is an excellent place to sell, lots of buyers for completed cross stitch go there, in fact, there is even an entire category there just for completed cross stitch. If you finish your items into needlecases or pin cushions or biscornus, etc. you can make some decent money at it. Also, near my home in Phoenix we have indoor swap marts which might be a good place to sell them (if there is one near you) if you have several already in stock.

    Well there is the travel shows…i.e Harvest Festival ? if you are wanting to sell your work, I would suggest looking up local arts and carft fairs ? Or Ebay, you never know ?

    good luck

        Ebay is good but the fees are high. Try http://www.etsy.com. Sign up is free and listing is 20 cents per item. That way you can test the waters before you spend the money to set up auctions on ebay. Good luck with your sales.
