On this week’s show, Kathy talks with Benjamin Levisay, CEO of XRX, the founders of Stitches! Next week, WEBS is a proud sponsor of Stitches United, which will be held in Hartford, Connecticut, happening April 27th – 30th at the Connecticut Convention Center. Stitches marries knitters, crocheters, and other fiber junkies with sewers, embroiderers and fabric lovers. This is the perfect event for those of us who want the best of both worlds, and who have more than one craft skill in our repertoire. Don’t forget to stop by the WEBS booth to say hi! Best of all, WEBS has a coupon for 50% off market admission! We hope to see you all there!
Take classes from some of the top names in the industry, but they’re filling fast – for a list of classes, click here. You do NOT want to miss out!
We’ll be at booths 407, 409, 411, 506, 508, 510. For a map of the marketplace floor, click here!
