Special Events

Thrilling classes, events, and lectures for Nashua, April 2012

Our 20th show will be filled with classes that just keep getting better every year! Shopping days Friday and Saturday are open to the public. Day admission may be purchased on site. There may be classes with openings and you may sign up for additional classes at this event. But, be aware that very few classes may be available because most everyone preregisters and teachers have few available kits. Susan Greening Davis joins us again as our emcee for the week.

During our weekend remember to look for our display of gift baskets and purchase raffle tickets to benefit breast cancer research. Our vendors, manufacturers, teachers and exhibitors have generously donated enticing designs, products and accessories that would be a thrill for any Stitcher to take home for the price of a raffle ticket. The week wouldn't be complete without our Round Robin evening when four teachers each present a kitted project. Each session has four different kits and you may sign up for either session or both sessions. Join us at our Meet N Greet on Wednesday evening for a preview of class projects, followed by make it take it round robin. Join us on Thursday evening for our Preshow Shopping evening for members. This is a free event to members and $10 to nonmembers. Please preregister for all the events. The Friday Night Event is the always sold-out gathering where Susan guides us through a night of fast paced games, a lecture, a project, various surprise's, a silent auction to benefit breast cancer research and the wonderful, tasty dinner buffet.

Stitcher's Lounge

Our New Hampshire show we have a "Stitcher's Lounge" set up for anyone to drop in for socialization and stitching. The Embassy Suites in St Charles there will be a Retreat Room for day shoppers who need a break and a place to sit down to rest. The Embassy Suites accommodates you with rooms that are suites. You will have an outer room with a sofa, desk, and chairs for "entertaining" and we suggest that you have an "open door policy" where new and old friends are invited in for after-hours stitching. Your private lounge will provide an opportunity to chat about designs, accessories and classes you have taken. Don't forget the wine and cheese!

Look over the classes and events, examine the photos and descriptions and sign up as soon as you can make a decision. We look forward to seeing you in the fall!
