A few pictures from Paul~

post soldering class!

O.k. I did really well, and remembered ALL of my supplies, I just forgot the camera. But, I gotta give a huge shout out to all who came out for the soldering class. First timers soldering? You guys rocked! I am really impressed with what you all put together and how much stuff you made in our class time. A big thanks to Chris for having her own soldering iron AND sharing it! and for letting us all try out her soldering board. I didn't think that thing was going to be anything special, but it was REALLY helpful. I did take lots of pics. with Tamara's camera,( sorry for the blurry ones Tam) and I have high hopes that some will land here!! I really enjoyed seeing all the pieces together in the end, and I think I might ask all my classes to do that-
Thanks you guys for making such a great class!!

I also have to say that Tamara has all the Easter stuff out, so if you are a sucker for bunnies and ducks (like me) then you had better get on over there!!!

Thanks to everyone who attended the Cupid sock creature class on Tuesday the 5th of Febuary. It was an inspiring class; some of the best sock creatures I've seen in a while.  Everyone was fantastic, enjoyable, and just filled with so much creativity I think it shocked some of them! it didn't shock me, not in the least. 

Blah ,Blah , Blah, I talk to much!! so take a look at some of the Cupid sock creatures above. Thanks again everyone! Joe
