3rd Annual Workshop at my workshop
August 23rd-25th, 2013
Cost $250.00 Includes felting instruction, brunches, lunches and a dinner. We will go out to eat Friday night as a group to get to know eachother. Please let me know if you have dietary requirements.
The workshop fills up fast, 8 spots, so I am asking for a deposit of $100.00 to hold your spot. You can pay the remainder at the workshop. Please tell me where you would like to stay so I can save beds and camping spots.
Ruffles


The Holey scarf
I have lots of new techniques to show you, including the "no roll" method. I won first place at the Oregon Flock and Fiber Festival with my "holey" scarf. I would love to share that technique with you as well as the ruffled scarf. These techniques are just part of the idea sharing and creative fun.
Supplies in my workshop will be available for purchase but it's OK to bring your "stash".
If you have a rolling kit, please bring it. I will have extras for those of you flying in. No need to bring towels, I have plenty to share.
The fun starts on Friday with a brunch at 11:00, the famously wonderful, Tracy's scones, fruit salad and yogurt. Arrival time from 9:00 to 11:00.
If you would like to stay at my house these are the accommodations;
   I have one bathroom but it works out OK.
   I have two beds on a covered patio for those who like to sleep outside.
   There is room for blow up beds on the front deck (please bring your own bedding)
   There are 3 beds inside.
   Lots of room for tent camping and RV parking.
If you don't want to stay here (missing all the fun) I recommend the
Humboldt House Inn-Best Western Motel
or the Benbow Inn, ask for a room in the old part, less expensive, no TV and lots more atmosphere.

More holes and ruffles. I have been having so much fun exploring and can't wait to show my students how to be successful. It's not an easy technique but very exciting. Check out the additions to my teaching schedule, including the Workshop at MY Workshop in August and many more. This is going to be a very busy year.
