We are a very lucky guild - we usually have six - eight vendors at each general monthly meeting. We have about 135 members.
They bring a variety of stuff:
- one lqs specializes in 'brights' and brings fq's, half- full- and 2-meter cuts, and she puts together misc cuts that total 1 meter in yardage
- one specializes in patterns, notions and books, brings lots of very cool gadgets
- one specializes in kits - has samples made up to show off the kits
- one specializes in asian fabrics - brings fq's and half meter cuts
- one is a phaff dealer and specializes in embroidery/threadwork
They are usually at each meeting, and we've also had all of them as guest speakers, and some also conduct workshops. When they do the speaking, they've featured something they specialize in, and they sell lots of it!
Hope this helps!
