You're not going to do everything "right" at the start, but will learn along the way. And one of the most important points is the advice Chuck has given over and over...don't sell your product for less than it's worth. If you get known for your "cheap" prices, people will assume you have an inferior product. Please don't fall into that trap. One of the best compliments I ever got was when a friend, who happened to be a good customer, commented to a woman "Ada's really good, but she's not cheap." Get your plan together and start out slow.

Besides the city/town and state, I also have an home owners association that restricts some businesses in the home. As long as I do not put a sign in my yead and have a parking lot, I can have my machine quilting business in my home. I have also contacted a local quilt shop, for customer pick up/drop off site.
