Sew Expo

Well, I'm off!  Not 'off my rocker', although out of my easy chair and off to the Seattle area for my very first SewExpo!    

 

As you can see by the picture, it is billed as

 "The Biggest Sewing Party in America!"

I've signed up for several classes, not to mention, all of the exhibits that I will see and enjoy!
I'll be looking at sewing machines, trying to decide which one would be right for the type of sewing that I do. I will visit the Brother, Pfaff, Husqvarna, Bernina and Janome exhibits.   I am sure that I will see lots of fabric exhibitors and quilt associations; also, quilt shops and trunk shows from all around!  

My classes,  just to name a few, are:
 "More Creativity: One Stitch at A Time" 

"Needles - Getting to the Point"

"Crazy for Bags"

"Serger Basics - Decorative Thread"

"New Tricks for Old Quilts"

I can't wait!
Then, there are the Sewing Stars that will be appearing and doing some workshops: 


When I get back, I will give you a recap and maybe share a few tricks and sewing secrets that I will be learning!  I can't wait . . . I can't wait . . .  I can't wait!!!!!!!!!!  If you can't wait to hear about it first hand, here is a blog site that is keeping up with all the doins'.   Also, info about the expo is here!
