This weekend in Addison. There is no cost to go to the vendor hall. I do not know if all the classes are filled. However, I am about to go over there and will check it out.

I just got back from Addison. The organizers told me most of the classes

have openings and you can register at the conference center about an hour before the class. Cash or check only.

One lady I talked to that had a vendor booth has a shop called

Fiber Circle. Her shop is in Farmersville(between McKinney and Greenville)

She has a bunch of thread- rayon, Presencia and DMC. So for any N. Texas threadies, she has balls, cones in a fabulous array of colors.

Of course she has the yarns you would find in LYS like Woolie Ewe.

I saw several vendors with hand dyed yarn, a couple that did spinning and sold roving? I don't know if that is the right term for that! LOL!

A lady was demonstrating loom knitting. And of course they have the classes by Lily Chin and other experts as advertised on the link I have above.

So, I have to decide if I am going back over there for a class or not! There is a class called "Quilted Modular Crochet" that sounds neat. I met the teacher of that class and she told me a little about it. I think it's on Sunday. Plus there is a beaded crochet and rope class Sunday am by Melody Macduffie.

Tonight is the fashion show, but I won't be able to make that.

Anyhoo, that is what I found out so far!
