I remember the first time I ever went, introducing myself as new to the needlecraft world and being greeted with beaming smiles and welcoming handshakes on every stand. That hasn&#8217;t changed, although a good many years have passed and the show is now called &#8220;Craft, Hobby, and Stitch&#8221; and encompasses papercrafts and ceramics (among other crafts) as well as needlecrafts.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Some of you may recall that this time last year I was very excited because some designs I produced for Classic Embroidery had just been launched.
