Product Description

This event is going to be OUT OF THIS WORLD!

Don't miss your chance to be a part of our 2 Day Hands-on In-the-Hoop, 502 Party! Featuring Anita Goodesign!

This class will feature fan favorites like door décor, cork coasters, bottle aprons, and more! Attendees will work on top-of-the-line embroidery machines with up to 3 people per machine. Attendees will also receive exciting bonus content with exclusive videos, which are only available on the In the Hoop 502 USB. These videos will highlight tips, tools, tricks, techniques, and more!

The projects you can create after taking this class will keep you thinking outside the hoop! You’ll see how we create our popular door décor designs, zippered bags with the landscape technique, unique toppers for towels, and a freestanding notions pocket.

Want to know more? We thought so! You’ll also see the magic behind creating fun magnets, doilies, embroidered wreaths, and even fun designs for the furry friends in your life – your pets! Just like the other University classes, you’ll receive a binder with tons of tutorials and education and, of course, your USB with all of the designs - enough to make you flip your hoop!

For the FIRST TIME EVER, on that USB will be exclusive, never before seen videos. The videos will be on topics like using Burmilana threads, our fan favorite tips and tricks on things like hooping, interfacing, and notions, dolling up your doilies and sew much more - your hoop will flip again!

Fun and informative 2 days. My 5th Anita Goodesign event and first with Allbrands. Moved to the area 5 years ago and not touched my machine. Now I’m motivated again and ready to attend more events this year. Thank you Allbrands!

Mary Jane Rosiere Sutton: Such a great workshop! Allbrands Houston, Albrands Corporate, and Brother brought their "A" game! Ready for the next one! Thanks to everyone involved❤️❤️

Mary Fitts: I want to thank the AllBrands and Brother representatives who helped to make the recent Anita Goodesign event a success. This was a terrific event. The venue was superb, the machines were top of the line, the activities were fun and "doable" in the allotted time and everyone seemed to have a great time. I loved it. I had invited my sister to come from Colorado to the event and she also thought it was one of the best embroidery events she had ever attended. And kudos to the local staff who found my sister's jacket which she inadvertently left behind and took great care of it until we could pick it up. Thanks to all. You did a terrific job and I am already stitching out items from the event.

Dear John, I wanted to take a couple of minutes and let you know what a great job the Houston store did at the recent Anita Goodesign workshop here in the bay area. The entire event was fabulous from start to finish. I had some concerns because I invited my sister from Colorado to attend the event with me and wanted her to have a good time. My concerns were without merit. Every facet of this event was a success, at least in my opinion. The AG rep was very well versed in his products as was the Brother rep. But the AllBrands reps who supported this event were absolutely great. The welcomed us as we walked in the door and made us feel at home right away. The energy was high throughout the event and I remember thinking that each and every AllBrands reps was dedicated to ensuring everyone had not only a good time, but a successful one as well. Thank you for sponsoring this event. The price was right and everything, down to the lovely lunches, was perfection. Thanks again. I hope to see more AG events in the future. Sincerely, Mary F

This is for an Anita Goodesign program and the first I will be attending with All Brands. I moved to the area (LAKE JACKSON) almost 5 years ago but have continued to go back to Austin to Sew Much More, where I was a customer for 20 years). I'm looking forward to meeting your staff and establishing a "local" store. I love my Austin sewing family and hope to get the same experiences locally.
