If it were me sewbizgirl, I most certainly would!!! Guess that's why I have never been interested in doing them plus the mileage in Wyoming. I still think the leadership needs to know and I'd send pics to them if they will allow. These shops get free advertising for doing this and get the traffic through their shops..wouldn't you think they'd want to represent themselves well?
apparently your shop is not thinking of this and just going the cheapest way possible. It truly is a shame!!! Be very proud for winning and all your hard work, I totally understand your disappointment
