The Baptist group would like to know why "Lunch will not be a workshop"!

Yes, the "tiling" technique. We would need to add that to a section as it wouldn't take long to teach.

Lynn....I can see five or six of your suggestions that would peak my interest. But a lot would depend on just how "basic" some of the workshops would be. I surmise that most people attending would probably have had their machines at least a year or more so an Intermediate workshop of maybe 1) Designer and 2) Machine Maintenance would be of interest..... as most of us have probably already had our machines semi-apart at least once or twice.

Since I don't have the Pattern Editor or the STL/DXF or a 3-D Program I'd certainly be interested in see just what these programs accomplish. Then there is the Finishing aspect of any project that a person could learn from....like some of the new products that are out on the market and how to apply them.

Besides, I'm ready to get out of this rain, snow and cold weather. Hopefully in May it will be nice and warm in the Houston area.

Sharon,

Nice and warm would be an understatement. You would probably need an air conditioner to keep your air conditioner cool...
