We are going to Stitches West again this year at the Santa Clara Convention Center. If you can make it, we plan to get there at 10:00 (the opening, so that we can get some good parking). Then we will wander around the Marketplace until about 12:00 at which time we will stop and eat lunch at the concession area(we usually pack a sandwich or something light so that we won’t waste time and yarn money on the concession food).
That’s where we can all meet up and compare notes.  Give me a call on my cell phone ( 408-410-4306) if you can’t find us and I’ll let you know where we are.
 
If you want to carpool let me know. Here’s a 50% off coupon for admission.

Parking is free. Lots of stuff to look at  and buy. Enter all the drawings you can, too. Jenny won a magazine subscription the first year she went. I won a skein of yarn. There are a lot of give-aways as well. I got skeins of yarn in the past from Malibrigo, tape measures from Craftsy, stitch markers from misc vendors, etc.
 
Here’s a link for more information. You can download a PDF of the entire showbook and sign up for classes (some free, some not, if there are any left) etc

Let me know if you have any questions. Hope to see you there!
