Signing Books at Costco in Norwalk Connecticut
On Thursday, April, 29th, I appeared at Costco in Norwalk, Connecticut to sign copies of my latest book, ‘Martha Stewart’s Encyclopedia of Sewing and Fabric Crafts.’ Costco also sells my Encyclopedia of Crafts, my Great Food Fast, and my Fresh Flavor Fast, and I was happy to sign those, as well. As always, I really enjoy meeting my fans and appreciate when they come to see me. I also really love Costco. In fact, I renewed my membership!
