We found it very difficult to convince DSM'ers that this festival was also for them. Next time we have some amazing plans to promote to DSM quilters and to provide many opportunities for ALL machine quilters. Tell your friends...book the dates!<br />We already have some domestic machine vendors interested in attending next time, that were offered this time, but did not understand what we were trying to do.<br />cheers<br />TraceyTraceyBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03053887599129545542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4176115926415332065.post-21376533972239201702010-10-09T00:32:54.063+10:302010-10-09T00:32:54.063+10:30Thank you for organising such a great event. Howev...Thank you for organising such a great event. However, I do hold you responsible for the complete halt in my quilting progress while I design a new project inspired by what I learned!<br /><br />As a domestic-machine quilter, I found that the festival was very oriented towards longarm quilters. Although I did get a lot out of some of these lectures, I would love to see more sessions with a bit more focus of DSMs. In particular, I (and a lot of my friends) would love to see more hands-on classes. I would have jumped at the chance of some more advanced hands-on classes, especially from some of the big-name teachers, although I can appreciate the difficulties.<br /><br />I also loved the opportunity to try out some long arm set-ups, and I definitely see one in my future. I am already looking forward to 2012; whether I attend as a lomg-armer or DSMer.Emmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08418320852653847841noreply@blogger.com
