Highs and lows, finishes and starts

January 21, 2021

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 […]

What a week!

January 14, 2021

  It’s a short post this week. Most of my time has been consumed in prep for this week, with too many major events crammed together.

Craft Napa 2019

January 17, 2019

This was my fourth year at Craft Napa -what a thrill! Craft Napa is The Most Fun venue. I finally figured out what makes CN unique: the students it attracts are so engaged, so creative, so open to learning. It IS a different experience at Craft Napa! I wish I had taken more photos to […]
