Let's do another virtual road trip, shall we? This time we're at Ruth Schmuff's shop (Bedecked and Beadazzled in Baltimore), listening in to the Kelly Clark three day weekend of classes. Day One had Kelly teaching her latest Halloween character, a witch named Elvira. She's a classy lady and look at all the beads!

Day Two was a class on a hatbox canvas that is full of interesting techniques. I've seen the woven basket technique on Amy Bunger's DVD #7, "The Ins and Outs of Needleweaving." It's a fiddly way to make a woven look but it is worth all the patient work in my opinion.

Day Three is more on the hat boxes, with another interesting technique for the ribbon of roses....

Love the picture and the comment "learn new swear words" - don't we all?
Jane snickers....
Sad,but true. LOL
The photo is of me this week. I am cuter than ever, naturally. Sadly, there are more white streaks in Ye Olde Hair and more wrinkles, too. The personal charm is intact, however. In case you care.
I also like the new photo, and sadly I report a lot more gray hairs myself, so not to worry...we will all stitch and age gracefully!
