Columbus Market Again UPDATED

Folks are coming home from Columbus now and still posting about the wonderful things they say there.  Margaret is back from helping at the Squiggee booth and is promising a series of articles on what she saw.

She also has photos in her online Photo Album from the show.  Look at pages 1-3. Anything posted after the first of June is from Columbus.

Peggy is home now but full of stories (and photos) of the classes she took at the TNNA show.  These are presented so that shop owners learn new techniques, stitches and about new threads and can pass the knowledge along to their customers.  Peggy, thanks for taking the classes on our behalf--it was a huge sacrifice!  [Big grin]

DMC's blog has two product summaries: one on the workhouse perle cotton (which is so useful so many places) and their newer satin floss.  Each article has photos of needlepoint projects done with the featured thread.

I expect a little more information to trickle out over the next few days.  Stay tuned for more news....
