Shopping

The Counting House

Carma and her wonderful staff will be welcoming us into the Counting House again this year for hours of S.E.X. (Stash Enhancement eXperience). While searching for your newest SINS (stuff I'll never stitch) you will enjoy admiring the hundreds of models that cover every inch of the shop! Also, for those veterans of previous conventions, you will get to see the new shop, yep, the new shop, Carma and the gals have moved to a new location!

 
 Classes

Doug Kreinik of Kreinik Manufacturing will be joining us again this year! Many Pals met him at last years convention when he taught an interesting class about using Kreinik products. Doug is planning to teach several classes at this years convention. More details about this coming soon!

TerryLee Capps of Designs with TLC will be joining us to teach hardanger. Please see her post on the Pals Convention BB for more info! Can't wait Terry Lee!

Also joining us will be Catharine Lawhon from Jazzbird Designs. She does some wonderful blackwork, and though it's not exactly what some would call "traditional blackwork", we think it's wonderful. Visit Catharine's page and see for yourself!

Of course Alma Lynne & Ed will be joining us again, they are part of the Pals! If you have something you want Alma Lynne to sign, bring it with you!

And you just never know who else might show up :-)

Activities!

 Friday and Saturday will include some of our favorite activities and lots of friends and stitching!

The ever popular grab bag exchange will be held again this year. This is a fun time to enjoy the creativity Pals use in making the most coveted grab bag at the convention.
