Some come for the recharge, other’s come to solidify their creative business ideas, all are welcome. What will you come for? Early bird registration is open comment TICKET to get yours.

When @textile_collections_ invited us to peruse th When @textile_collections_ invited us to peruse their downtown LA warehouse and choose fabric for the @craftcationconference sewing workshops, I hopped on the train and spent the afternoon oohing, ahhing, and treasure-hunting with @leannicorn. The best part? Watching our attendees transform those 100% cotton quilting fabric gems—straight from top designers and manufacturers—into clothing, accessories, and so much more. Thank you @textile_collections_ for inspiring and supporting our community! #craftersofinstagram #makersofinstagram #smallbusinesssupport #craftbusinessowner #smallbusiness
