TESTIMONIALS
"I just wanted to send a note of thanks for hosting the raffle for the workroom table. I was just about to make one for my workroom. When my name was called, I was actually standing in a booth buying a canvas cover. This could not have come at a better time!"

Thank you so much,
Brenda Wells
Winner of the Workroom Table at the Southern Design & Workroom Conference in Knoxville,TN March 2, 2008
"Thank you for waiving my registration fees for the conference. If there could be a silver lining to Donna Skufis' foot surgery and not being able to drive, it's that I finally made it to a conference after hearing about them for years. Your generosity was the extra push I needed.

I learned so much Scot Robbins and Amy Burton and Donna and Beth Hodges and all the exhibitors.

I'm a big fan of the conference now and I do plan to return without the extra incentive.

Thank you again!"

All the best,
Jo Moore
“I learned so much, but most of all found I am much more qualified than I thought. I am empowered to do more than I had hoped to and am looking forward to 2008. Thank you!”

“Can’t begin to tell you what a wonderful time I had at the show in Valley Forge. I stayed for 4 days and I can say that every class I took was a 100+. I hated to see it end.”

– Suzanne , Batavia, NY

“I can honestly say I have always walked away with more knowledge then I had previously. A lot of great people, great topics, interesting products, and most of all new friendships - Sewing sisters.”

– Herbie O’Keefe, Santa Fe, NM

"I have already used several of the techniques I learned at the conference on projects in our workroom. They have made the end product even better. I would also like to take some of the business courses offered. Even after 18 years in the business I know that there is more I can learn."
