Crafts corner show

Tascha · ‎06-27-2010

I'm a crafter and was thrilled to see that the Q was going to bring it back. However, I was disappointed. It seemed as though they were rushing the vendors through their presentations and I felt awful for the Brother vendor most of all. She was so rushed that she couldn't perform her presentation without feeling rushed and flustered, if you're going to continue either do a two hour show or less vendors to rush through. I wasn't pleased and that is probably why when I need any crafting products I go to your competitor. They devote shows the entire month of March with one big 24hour show toward the end of the month. Please just slow down, I had a very hard time with your UK guest speaking so fast.

I could not wait for this show to start.What a bummer. It was so rushed and the variety was not there. Bring back the shows of old. It was all paper crafting and you can get those items at Michaels or ACMoore and do not have to pay for shipping and handling;variety is much better.AWFUL AWFUL.

Too much scrapbooking! What about some other crafts?

Do you remember the great craft shows where the variety was Knitting Crocheting Gallery Glass,Donna Dewsbury(her painting kits). Enjoyed watching the woman from Plaid bring so many items. Think she also demonstrated Galery Glass. Made some nice decorative items for my home.Still like New on the front door glass panels.

Yes! I remember those shows. Much better than what they had on there yesterday. I appreciate that this was the first craft show in ages, but I do hope they bring a more varied selection of crafts in future shows.

I remember those shows. That's when they had an all day craft show. I loved it and watched most of the day. I would love to see days like that again.

I'm so glad that I wasn't the only one disappointed in this show. I definitely remember the craft shows from the past. They used to have so much variety that allowed one to choose what level of crafting they wanted to do. I've never been into scrapbooking. But I did love when they had items like Gallery Glass.

On a side note, I really felt bad for the vendor who was demonstrating the Brother Sewing Machine. They just rushed her through. It almost seemed like Carolyn was annoyed with her because she was having a problem with the presentation. I realize that the host's sales for a product rely on how a vendor shows the item but the lady was doing her best. She kept apologizing and Carolyn kept saying it was ok but I just sensed an underlying irritation.

I'm a big fan of Carolyn, but she was just the wrong choice to host a craft show. She admittedly is a "novice" crafter (at best!). Jacque, David or Jill (among others) would have been much better. Carolyn was, sadly, out of her realm on this type of show. The show was an utter disappoint, in my opinion. And it didn't even last an hour. Sad.
