Life Gets Away Again!
It was SO wonderful to see these good, funny, witty, wonderful friends again! Having the opportunity to show off my daughter to my college friends, and vice versa, was a dream come true AND comic gold.

Sleeping in San Jose
I’ve reached the point in my Fibromyalgia journey when I realize that saving up my energy is the best plan on teaching trips. Students have paid good money to get as much of my strong, clear attention as possible, they deserve it. When I deviate from my energy saving plan and socialize, I’m not able to give 100% of my limited energy, and that I’ve failed in some way.
Sleeping in Orlando, And Other Past Times
I have seldom taught such a fun, hardworking, wonderfully challenging and great group as the Knit Or Knot Guild in Orlando!
Leaving Arkansas
…And I got some drink vouchers for the plane. The Hot Springs Arkansas Fiber Extravaganza PARTY train is NOT ending yet!
So Much Fun, Not Enough Photos!
I chalk the wealth of amazing students up to Interweave being the type of magazine which is a MAGNET for folks who like to learn, grow and find joy in their crafts.
End of Summer, Teaching Season Opens (& Stitches?!)

Iceland Class, History & Home!
Icelanders are sensible, caring, confident and very kind. Being able to stay with a private family, experiencing a small slice of Icelandic life, was a tremendous gift and I’m grateful to Ragga for welcoming me into her home.
Amazing Day Around Iceland!
As the day wore on, our group became closer and friendlier, everyone easing into a wonderful sense of contentment. This is due in no small part to Ragga’s excellent work preparing such wonderful stops for our tour, and her ability to assemble folks in breathtaking locations for a singular experience!
