Heading off next week to another wonderful Stitches South Expo in Atlanta, GA. Teaching classes, doing some book signings and demos in the Marketplace and meeting lots of friends, old and new. Going down south in the Spring! What could be better?
Many of you already know that I am a huge fan of the Madrona Fiber Arts Retreat held each February in Tacoma, Washington. The founder of this retreat, Suzanne Pedersen is an ardent supporter of the fiber world and a true nurturer of all of us who work in and love this world. She is always looking for ways to help us along our path, asking thought provoking questions, providing platforms so that we may share our ideas and creativity and making us feel valued in oh so many ways. I could not be more excited to share that I will be leading a Madrona Fiber Arts Spring Workshop: Adventures in Bead Knitting Design , a three day Design and Creativity workshop at Suzanne’s home this May.
From what I have been told by others who have taught or attended Suzanne’s workshops, you WANT to be there. In addition to the ample time we’ll have to work (and play!) together, know that classes are held at Suzanne’s beautiful lodge style home in the Cascade Foothills just 30 minutes from downtown Seattle. If commuting is not possible for you, there is limited space to stay FOR FREE (!) at Suzanne’s and other accommodations are close by. And I hear the food is amazing! Can’t beat that!
For full class descriptions, costs and to register for the workshop: Contact Suzanne at Suzanne@madronafiberarts.com or 425-222-3554. Remember the class size is limited. Would love to see some of you there!
