Cheryl has often sent me emails from her list and to me personally.<BR/><BR/>I've been watching Fiskars like you have too and learning. They sure do this with style.<BR/><BR/>I was in attendance at "The Spring Fling" where over 60 of us met at a local craft store (south Orange County, CA).<BR/><BR/>We did a 'make-n-take' with some wonderful products I'd never used before and there was food & drink.<BR/><BR/>They had games & encouraged folks to mingle.<BR/><BR/>The highlight were the elaborate gift baskets! I actually won a prize like that with about 5 or 6 of their products, most of which I'd never tried before.<BR/><BR/>The really interesting thing: I sat there wondering when I'd ever use them. In the following weeks (and in the present) I find myself getting those very tools to help me with what I'm doing.<BR/><BR/>I was flabbergasted! I was SURE I'd never use this or that thing and here I am, relying on them just about every time I pull out my craft stuff.<BR/><BR/>It might be worth a visit again to see if they have incorporated the things you mention in your post.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for writing it!<BR/><BR/>Pam Hoffman #3198<BR/>http://seminarlist.blogspot.comPam Hoffmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05957338998462543177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24784219.post-35613884600640287382007-08-05T02:43:00.000-05:002007-08-05T02:43:00.000-05:00Mack,Thanks for continuing to do the blog check up...Mack,<BR/><BR/>Thanks for continuing to do the blog check ups.

In addition I frequently e-mail people who comment to continue conversations with them about experiences, etc. I've found that I've made some great friends and connected to fellow crafters this way on a very personal level.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
