Filling in time

Embroidery from the Natural World

So I am working really hard on nailing down the last of the details for this years class list and registration details. And we are so close. So very close and so very excited. Big announcements will start early next week including some new teachers and all of the new classes. (Many pretty pictures...) Jump on our mailing list if you want to be kept up to date. 

And so things have been a little quiet here on the blog......my apologies but unfortunately there aren't enough hours in the day and also I have no words left. None.

So I thought to fill in a little time I would throw you a few photos from last year's event that I haven't published. Just to get you in the mood.....

I do just want to add one caveat before we begin with the photos (where it looks like everyone knits). There were people at the event that couldn't knit. Lots of them. It isn't a prereq!!
