Dear Sewing Expo Enthusiasts,

Expo is less than a month away and all the last minute details are falling into place. Here's the second of our news shorts to tell you about the special events at Expo this year.
 

FRIDAY IS “WEAR YOUR RECYCLED DENIM TO THE SHOW" DAY.

C’mon – it’ll be fun!! You simply WEAR something you’ve made out of recycled DENIM. 

The first thing you do is go to the Schmetz Needle Booth #144 – and Rhonda Pierce will take your picture (for our official Recycled Jeans Slide show). You’ll enter your name in the "Schmetz Recycled Denim Prize" box.
 
You will also go to the Junk Jeans booth #711 – to enter your name into a second “Recycled Challenge Prize” box.

You could win Schmetz Sewing machine needle collections, Junk Jeans books, patterns, and one of those fancy pink DRILLS!

Be creative – think out of the box!  Here's a great recycled denim SKIRT I was admiring in Chautauqua last September...

This is a picture of me in my recycled jeans – which I WILL BE WEARING ON FRIDAY.

So get busy, people. Our friends in the Schmetz booth and Junk Jeans want to see if we’ve GOT SOME GAME...

At at 5:00 PM on Friday – we’ll  get a GROUP SHOT of the Recycled Jeans Challenge group.  So –weather permitting – we’ll all gather outside – AT THE FOUNTAIN for our official photograph.  The prizes will be drawn and awarded at that time.
 
5:00 ON FRIDAY…BE THERE OR BE SQUARE.  And you’ve gotta play to win!
 
RECYCLE THOSE JEANS….BECOME A DENIM DIVA!
 
Best,
