Dear Chicago
It's been a while since my CREATE gig in Chicago, but life has been ... life, I guess. Lots of stuff going on (good and bad, mostly bad), so I'm just now making time to post about it. I was not myself in Chicago, as my sweet little doggie died the night I arrived. I thank all my students, my fellow instructors and the CREATE organizers for their kindness, sympathy and understanding. Most of the students didn't know why I was such a hot mess, but they put up with me and supported me anyway. Here's what it looked like...
[day 1 - Thread Painted Mini Art Quilts]
[My classrooms were sponsored by Bernina. I'm very brand loyal, and Bernina is right up there with Apple and Capezio.]
[day 2 - Fabric Journals]
[one student, who took both my workshops, brought me a flower to raise my spirits. it did. thank you.]
Two of my college friends, who I hadn't seen since college, scooped me up each night after my workshops and took care of me. One night even included a barefoot, moonlit walk on the beach. With fireworks. Thanks boys.
[with Norm + Brian at Tommy Guns]
[driving tour of Chicago]
Until we meet again, Chicago...
peace

it went by so fast, didn't it? xoxo
The whole trip is kind of a tear stained blur to me.
