I was so fortunate to attend Footwear Symposium in Savannah, my first time to Savannah. The Symposium was fabulous, so much new information to unpack. What a pleasure to meet my amazing fellows, my tribe, my new family.
I received a “shout out” from the awards committee! The competition was steep. Such accomplished cordwainers. The winners were Melody Chia – Best Women’s, Best in Show and People’s Choice, Sarah Guerin – Best Men’s, and Michelle Quick – Most Innovative.
There were attendees from Australia and Ecuador. Of course shoemakers from all over the US including Alaska. I was impressed by the attendance of so many master boot makers from Out West. Such a treat to meet them.
