Needle Nerds? SCHMETZ Stalkers? Of course, I know SCHMETZ has a tremendous, creative, and loyal following. After all, you can’t use your sewing machine without a SCHMETZ needle. But I was oblivious to SCHMETZ fans referring to themselves as nerds and stalkers.
I was in Las Vegas two weeks ago for the Vacuum & Sewing Machine Dealers Trade Association (VDTA), a wholesale show newly renamed Create+Clean. I had a booth and gave a class. I was delighted when dealers and educators introduced themselves as a Needle Nerd or SCHMETZ Stalker.
Next week I’ll be in New Orleans giving two SCHMETZ lectures at Original Sewing & Quilt Expo. Here’s the show link: Original Sewing & Quilt Expo in New Orleans, LA (sewingexpo.com)
This month I have six virtual lectures or appearances scheduled for May: CaliQuiltsCo, Busy Needles Quilt Guild, ASG Plano TX, ASG Macon GA, Seams Sew Me, and Angela Wolf. I hope we have a chance to meet either in person or virtually. And when we do, tell me, are you a Needle Nerd or a SCHMETZ Stalker? 😊
