What's New/ From the Bottom of My Heart

Well, I have three new things to report and a little message for my bosses, readers and students.
1. I just added three new classes to my schedule and a basic class as well in Fresno, CA. One has been taught only once at a private hotel party, so only those ladies are in on it. It will be new for everyone else. The other two are ALL new. I should have pictures soon. It is just that my lack of retirement has gotten in my free time and prevented me from moving any faster. I plan to have them all up with pictures before Jan. 1. In the meantime, you canfind some info. on the left.
2. I will have a feature article in the next issue of Haute Handbags with photos and info. on my tangled totebags. I can't wait to see it.
3. I have been invited back to Art Unraveled for the fifth year running. I will be teaching two zentangle classes and a gelli plate class. I am also honored to say that my tangling is included on the banner at the top of the home page. you can check it out here: artunraveled.com. That was a big surprise, and I am beyond excited. I hope some of you will be there, and we can cross paths! It is always such a great time, and truly a premier event. Applications for vendors have not been called for yet, but I hope to get in on that as well.

And the message I want to send to all of you is this. At this time of thinking about the end of a year and things to celebrate and be thankful for, I always try to think of some of the the best "presents" I have gotten over the year that did not come in a fancy bag or a box with a bow. Then I try to quietly let the parties involved know they are one of my "gifts." This year, I can't do all of them so quietly, because there are so many of you. I just want you to know that I treasure and appreciate everyone who lets me use their venue to teach and all of you who check out my blog whether it be for inspiration, to get class information, or whatever. And I want to thank all the many, many people who have signed up for my classes and/or given me positive feedback. From the bottom of my heart, YOU really do inspire me. I wish you all the a fabulous holiday season and wish you many countless blessings not in bags or boxes, too.
