For the past few weeks I have been making handcrafted journals/books - getting prepared for First and second Sundays. In between making books and jewelry I managed to attend a weekend long, multiple workshops with Dina Wakeley at the Queen's Ink in Savage, MD a few weeks ago. Attended another 1 day workshop with Jess Green, Encaustics (Bare your Soul). All workshops were fabulous. Not to mention I am way behind in my online classes I signed up for. I need to stop signing up. Pics below.
I am scheduled as a vendor at
Second Sunday in New Market, MD July 14th. Artist booths will be set-up on the lawn in front of the Artway Store. I will also be a vendor for
First Sunday in Annapolis. MD (
http://firstsundayarts.com/home) August 4th and October 6th. I will be located in Whitmore Park. Annapolis is a fabulous town. Come check it out.

Beautiful work! Hope to see it all soon in person!
ReplyDeleteYou will.
DeleteBette your work is great! I LOVE all those new journals, you really have a talent with them. I am so happy to have the one I got last year at your show!
ReplyDeleteThanks Laura - you are a sweet friend. I'm happy we met at A&S all those years ago.
DeleteYou're amazing! So glad you've been making and making and making! My felting machine came via UPS today. I have to do some unpacking this morning and my reward for this afternoon will be thrifting for some wool to start with. I can't wait! Will be thinking of you and the rest of my tribe!!
ReplyDeleteYou will love the felting machine. I have a couple more books to make and then I will be getting my felting machine out - for more books.
