As this newsletter goes out, we are just concluding our first BERNINA workshop – a 3-Day “Sewapalooza” with 51 participants – in our new Classroom/Event space. What a blast!
Based on the enthusiastic response, there is no doubt that we are going to have more classes, workshops, and creative retreats in the near future. We are also renting out our 2000 sq ft event space to groups…apparently it is hard to find a space of this size.
So thanks to everyone from Blakeman Sewing who worked so hard to set up the 34 machines for this event. I had no idea we could fit so many people and machines into this space…wow!
Our teacher and some of our students stayed at the new Hampton Inn one block away, which is an award-winning property and oh-so-convenient. Students were treated to a studio tour and trunk show, and I got to talk about the quilt that is under the needle on my B790 at the moment.
sharing your Passion for Fabric…
