I like all your suggestions and think they will make for a great education day. Our local LQS is a sewing machine dealer and they teach most of these classes and she is a member of the guild. How do you justify having these classes when she is teaching them or has taught them at her store? Isn't that a conflict of interest? All her teachers are members and it would be like taking money out of their pockets.......just wondering how you all feel about this situation?
