I just received some wonderful news today. I am going to be lecturing and doing demos on July 26, 27, and 28th at Ruthie's Notions in Baker, FL. (www.ruthiesnotions.com) This will be part of her Christmas in July event. I am really excited to be doing this. I'll also be bringing in all of my products to be able to sell there at the event. So, I am off to the studio to produce some new items for the demo so that people can see some of the great things that you can do with a Babylock Embellisher, especially when it is combined with machine embroidery. I have been working on a few pieces which have been sitting on the sidelines and this is definitely the push that I need to finish them up. There will also be some other great people at this event including John Deer, a fabulous digitizer, and Joan Friedrick and Susan Zellers from Babylock. I have seen John's presentations before and they are just wonderful. I can't wait to see what the Babylock ladies have to show since they always have such new and wonderful things to show. Unfortunately, this event is currently full, BUT, the good news is that I will be doing a two day solo event at Ruthie's in the near future. We are working on the dates now, so stay posted to my bog for more info as it becomes available.
If you are close enough to Baker Florida (in the panhandle) to come to one of Ruthie's events, you should. She has a lot of events and many of the events are FREE to attend. So, if you haven't been there, you should check out her website. Also, Christopher Nejman (whose book, Pillows, was or is the number one craft book in the country as I understand) will be there in August. So, if you can be there, what a great chance it would be to be able to see him.
Well, I need to get back to work now. Lots to do anyway, and even more to do to get ready for this event in July. Hope to see you there.

BUYER BEWARE: Do NOT purchase from this “business owner!” Check out her company’s rating of “F” at the South Carolina Better Business Bureau and click the links for documentation of her dishonesty and theft:

Her first complaint was resolved – apparently at SOME point in time she believed in doing the right thing. But the complaint at issue today is the second one, marked “BBB did not receive a response from business.” In November 2013, she accepted $70 from a customer on PayPal and as of today (4/27/14) has NOT sent the merchandise OR provided a refund.
By clicking ‘Read complaint details,’ you can see customer’s repeated and polite attempts to contact business owner, however Denise (business owner) did not respond for MONTHS. She also ignored the Better Business Bureau’s attempts to make this right. After months of ignoring the customer, she finally called TODAY, screaming that she would only refund the money IF all negative Facebook reviews were removed. So she STILL refuses to return the money she unlawfully kept because she dislikes that the truth about her business practices is finally being revealed to others.
Keep your money and avoid the hassle (and theft!) that comes with doing business with Try Our Designs!
STILL waiting, by the way, for her to refund the money she accepted (LAST YEAR) for products she never sent. It would be really nice to see her do the right thing…
(FYI, in case you’re wondering why you can’t give her a Facebook rating anymore, she took the feature down today to hide her one star reviews.)
