    I'll be going to my second one in Sept. I went to the one last yr and I'd heard mixed reviews on it but I figured for 39 and you got 500 if freebees it was a no brainer. This yr its 49 and 599 in free thread, designs, stabilziers, etc. You learn so much and take your check book because you have the opportunity to get some great deals as well. I jumped at the chance to go again this yr. Lots of information there so that's why I'm going again this yr. Have fun. I hope this is the one you are talking about; if so it's worth it.

    Here's the package - $49 includes lunch and an embroidery gift package valued at $599
    Both hubby and I are going since he helps me with a lot of the embroidery work for my business ... so we're getting doubles on the designs but I think he'll have fun learning.

    I wish they would have one of the Floriani seminars here in the Denver
    area. I would attend it at any cost (almost), but $49 is a great deal.

    Last time I seen the Floriani classes in CO was last year and they were
    way up north (that is what we call any area north of Denver) they were
    in Ft. Collins & Greeley both of which is over an hour from me, and I HATE
    driving on the interstate (nerves are shot by the time I get there).

    You might be getting double he designs but you are also getting double the thread and stabilizer; what a deal on both. It's a great class and to get 599 of free things, isn't it worth taking a chance at not learning anything. They have new stuff out this yr to introduce so I'm excited about that and more free stuff too. I'll admit it.

    There is one in June in San Marcos, CA. That is a couple of hours from where I live. I think I'll go.

    I have an Ult2001 Brother EM.

    Ours is Chesapeake on one day and the next day is in Newport News. Its a great class if you are close enough to attend. I can see where else they are going if you want; they normally have it listed. The good thing about them and John Deer, once you go then you'll get emails letting you know where all they are going, especially when it's in your area.

    Yes I discovered the Aurora date when I went to the Floriani website
    yesterday.
    Last time I had checked the website which was a few months ago
    there was no CO locations listed.

    I sent Above & Beyond Sewing an email inquiring about sign ups.
    Even put it in my calendar for a weekly reminder to check sign up status.

    Now to just save up my money so I can attend.
