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.
