First of all some of my favorite friends came and took classes and stayed at the Hampton Inn with me. Marsha came in from Kentucky! My dear friend since 7th grade Kathy drove up for a couple of classes. My daughters mother-in-law and fellow painter Mauveline took 3 classes. My friend Carie and her friend Julie came in from Hubbard. And last but not least my fellow altered artist friend Judy came in from Mansfield.
Our first event was at the Doves Nest where we all met and swapped tokens for our name badges, swapped our swaps, ate, shopped, and had a speaker Lisa Pace.
