ISS show


After my eye check-up this morning, I will be heading to the ISS show (Imprinted Sportswear Show) in Atlanta. This is a 3 day trade show for appareal decorating businesses. (that's embroidery, silk, screen, heat transfer, etc).

I hope I get lots of thread and other samples like last year. I'll get to see lots of new products and make up a wish list for the future.

I went last year with a friend and we had a good time (even though she doesn't sew). This year I'm going by myself. That friend has a new grandson born on Thursday and she gets to play grandma. And Jonathan has too much homework to come home this weekend. So I'm going today instead of waiting until Saturday when I expect more people to be attending.

I just pray that my feet and back hold up for all the walking around all the exhibits. This year I'm taking a rolling suitcase to hold all of the catalogs. Last year I did take a big tote bag, but that soon got very heavy on my shoulder.

It should be lots of fun.
