"Hi Megan,
I just wanted to say thank you so much for hosting us with such short notice for Winnie's Bachelorette Party a few weeks ago. We all had a great time and left feeling very empowered - after all, we just made our own purses! It's been a lot of fun showing off our creations, we can't wait to come back and see what else we can create! Thanks again, Shaily"

"Hi Megan! We enjoyed our Bachelorette Handbag Party onOctober 14th so much!! Christine, the bride, had a fantastic time and the rest of us really enjoyed ourselves and were so thrilled to come home with a cool souvenir of our time together. None of us can believe that we helped to make these fantastic little creations! You and your staff were so helpful and friendly and really, really patient with all of us :) We'll definitely be spreading the word about your shop and who knows - perhaps we'll be back again soon to make something new!

Valerie Tennant and Diann Wallace- NJ

"Hi, Megan,
Thanks so much for the class last night - it was so fun and I'm so proud to have something that I made (mostly) myself. You were so kind and encouraging and I had such a great time. I hope all the people who ask about my bag come into your place and make one for themselves. Hope you made it in time for Project Runway. Thanks again!" Amber, New York, NY

"Dear Megan, I have heard rave reviews about the bachelorette party today for my future daughter-in-law, Stacey and her mom and her bridesmaids.They all said everything was great fun. They love their bags, and said that everyone at M Avery was so nice-even when they arrived late because they got lost. Many, many thanks to you and your staff for providing a fun and memorable day for everyone. It was a pleasure working with you, and I hope to have the chance to do it again. (I'd like to come in myself sometime!)" Lorinda, New Jersey July 2006

"Hi Megan- Thanks again for hosting such a fabulous handbag workshop! The girls and I had such a great time and you were a pleasure to work with! I can't wait to do that again, I can't beleive we actually made a handbag hahaa I never thought I would be able to do that! Its awesome! Talk to you soon!" Maria, New York, NY, March 2006

"Thank you so much for the great bags you helped us make. We all had such a wonderful time. I loved spending time with my girls, and we made something wonderful in the process. It was all I expected and lots more. I gave about 4 people your card, hopefully I can help you get some more parities. All the girls I work with want to come, so I will probably see you again soon. Thanks again! It was a BLAST!" - Dawn, Edison NJ - February 2006

"Hey Megan, Thanks so much for hosting our day. It was the first time the majority of my girls were in the same place at the same time. We had a wonderful time and love our bags. It was a great kick off for all of the wedding events to come." -Janelle, New York, NY - January 2006

"You really made it sound and look so easy!  It was nice that you didn’t take it for granted that we knew how to do anything (i.e. use a sewing machine)  The environment was so relaxed and I feel like I acquired a new skill!" Gina - Hoboken NJ March 2005
