Well my crazy week continued, I tried to snap a couple photo's of our demo at Sun Lakes. Couldn't really do it and take photo's so I just took a few when we got there. Lots of ladies all milling around waiting for their meeting to get underway. I think there had to end up being 100-150 ladies all in attendance. They did their usual meeting things and then called Marti up to introduce the store and tell everyone about what ETC. is all about. Then she introduced Barb and I. Barb did a great job keeping them all engaged, they seemed very interested and had alot of questions. We had a few raffle prizes to hand out so 3 ladies won gift cards to ETC. so I hope they have fun shopping or taking a class!
We had lots and lots to show them of the classes we teach, we passed around alot of our samples and then did the demo on our Slice of Bali pattern that we did for the All Cut Up class. We had done the demo at the store that morning for 28 gals that showed up. It was the beginning of something new for ETC. and it was great to see that many show up to see what we had going! They all seemed to love seeing something fun to do with a 10 inch square, had lots of questions and loved seeing our project quilt and pillow. What a great way to Sew them together and chop them up and sew them back together, it was lots of fun. I hope we see some other quilts being made from the pattern! Several all came prepared with their sewing machines and stayed to start their own project, we had to leave really fast after our demo ended tho to get to Sun Lakes in time so it'll be fun to see them all come in!
All Cut Up happens again next month, we'll be playing with 5 inch squares so you never know what we'll have up our sleeves!
