This weekend we went to TBEX 09 - Travel Blog Exchange's conference for travel bloggers and writers. Held in Chicago after BlogHer, it was attended by over 100 travel writers (many of whom we've featured here on Wandering Educators, and many more whom we WILL feature soon!). We learned a great deal from both the panels and from everyone we met.  It is inspiring and energizing to meet with your community, especially when our community (travel bloggers) are spread across the globe.

For many, what “stitches” calls to mind is handicrafts, needle art, or perhaps traditional embroidery or embroidery found on ethnic clothing. The work included in this exhibition will very likely confound those expectations.
