Making the Thread Dance

Off to Minneapolis/St. Paul Whooooeee!

Rate this Entry
Bright and early Saturday morning, I am off to the IOLI convention to teach 3 classes of tatting for the whole week! I may have no voice when I finish, but I am sure it will be a blast!!!! And I have accepted a brand newbie to be in the class. I just couldn't say no.

I am teaching a clinic type class: bring your problems and we'll take a crack at it. And I am teaching a Free Form Class. I can't even imagine how that will turn out! It is smaller, so we will have the courage to do something WITHOUT A PATTERN!!!!

And Saturday for 3 hours, 15 of us will be making Hyperbolic ruffles. I fully expect some of my students to be dumbfounded how simple and repetitive it is.

My samples are ready and my paperwork is printed (ran out of ink in the middle of it, yikes!)
I have found that some of my favorite pieces have gone walkabout. I sure hope they turn up some time.

Now I just have to pack the suitcases and GO!!!! Yippee!

    Sounds very exciting Patty. Love the idea of a week of tatting, sounds wonderful. Would love to see pics/ hear about the free form tatting and the 'form' it takes. Have a great and safe trip...and sip some honey and lemon tea while teaching to look after your voice :D xxxx

    Excellent idea. I have a classroom "angel" who would fetch such loveliness quite willingly. My "angel" going to have to work for a living because I am depending on her to make up the loss of energy from my newly identified medical problem.

    Patty, sorry to hear you are not well, but wonderful to hear illness is not going to stop you from doing what you love! I hope you are able to enjoy your time amongst this wonderful group, and like Linda I am very jealous! One day I hope to come over to one of these big events and meet you all! :D
