It is time again for Stitch-Con !
I am going to Stitch-Con again this year. I am super excited. This year I am going to be in Weekend A instead of B. I was waitlisted for both weekends and was accepted into Weekend A with just 4 weeks to spare.
Which weekend I received didn't really matter to me since I have no returning stitchin' friends, and I live in the Cincinnati area. I am able to attend for only the cost of the chair/entrance fee of $275.
Last year I done several stitch gathers. I started with Stitch-Con in June 2024 weekend B, then I done Summer Stitch with Keepsakes. Summer Stitch is a two Saturdays in July that stitchers gather together at a local Cincinnati Community Center and Stitch 9-4pm. Finaly I attend Barefoot Needleworks Beach Retreat in October.
This year I have changed things up. I am doing Stitch-con and Summer Stitch only. I have decided to change up on travel bags. Last year I took all my projects, snacks, gifts, and more in a tote bags everyday.
This year I bought a rolling cart from Michaels.
This cart is called the Everything Mary Collapsible Rolling Cart. It is currently on sale for $34.99. I actually found this cart months ago and I only paid $19.99. It comes in four different colors: purple, black, pink, and Aqua. I choose the Aqua color. It has hard sides and is plenty deep enough to fit my project bags/pouches.
I bought a plastic clear caddy to go in the cart from Michaels. It fits so well into the cart and on the top.
I decided to sew cotton pads to go in the bottom of the caddy. It was sew easy to do.
So with only 4 weeks to sew I decided to go light this year and only made 20 thread keepers and a small number of hoop savers.
These Thread Keepers are such a quick sew for a gift.
I still have two days to pack and plan. But time flies.
