A Wonderful Time at the CreativFestival...
I arrived home safely despite some VERY bumpy turbulence on the way home and dragged my suitcases to the basement Sunday night before falling into bed. Unlike some of the wonderful stitchers I spent time with this past weekend, I had the luxury of not having to go to work early Monday morning! As soon as the kids were on the bus, I went home and crawled back into bed to catch up on some of the sleep that I missed over the weekend. Then Nick came home sick from work and hour or so later and I have switched into nurse and mom mode ever since.
What wonderful memories I have! From getting fabulous ideas from stitchers (I’m already doodling my “muddy” little dragon) to hilarious giggles over chart symbols, the weekend was full of wonderful memories. I’d also like to thank all the friends (rather than students because that is what you’ve become over the years!) who jumped in to help snip floss, collect class fees and pass things out to make up for Teresa’s hands not being there and having extra things to kit up. You were my guardian angels and I appreciate the help more than I could ever put into words!
To Karen and Erica who went above and beyond, I owe you more thanks than this dragon has words for. I would have been totally lost without your support , thoughtful gestures and helping hands.
The photos of the class models (including the two of Teresa’s that I had with me) are up on the website under the secure links we discussed in our classes. If you have any trouble with the URLs, just e-mail me to double check how they are listed and that way you will have your photo reference to work from. Remember that if you run into any problems or have questions as you stitch the pieces, I am always just an e-mail away.
Finally, to all those of you who traveled from near and far to share time with me this weekend, I send tired but big dragon hugs to all of you. You truly are the reason I just can’t walk away from designing things to stitch... you are all far too much fun to spend time with. I’m already planning new things for next fall!

I just wanted to say thank you again, Jen, for a wonderful weekend. Your classes were great, and I can't wait to finish up the projects. I'm already looking forward to next year.
I must have missed the parts where you gave out the urls for the model photos. I've sent you an email asking for those links.
The classes were wonderful, and I really look forward to completing the kits. Thank you so much.
I'm so glad you had another great time in Ontario...sorry I missed it this year. Maybe next year!
I'm glad it all worked out in the end, and that you survived! Thanks again for sparing the time to email me :)
I also had problems accessing the url's and have sent you an email. Thanks again. Really had a lovely time.
