Highs and lows, finishes and starts
It seems like it all happened in one week with Craft Napa (both as student and teacher), a virtual lecture, a few family events and Hubby had a bit of dental surgery. I hope to have a boring few weeks now! First up, Craft Napa. I LOVED the virtual format….as a student. I’ll get to […]
