I am laying in bed in the hotel room in the fair fax area of LA. Deb and I just finished teaching 'Botanical Whimsy" at Kim Caldwell's "Artist Affair". I cannot think of words to describe this event but will try. These darling women check their baggage at the door and just come into this wondrous event to feel the joys of the creative spirit mixed with love and companionship . The energetic mood just flows through the room as we the attendees and teachers just lay back and bask in this captivating energy!! Kim ( Caldwell ) our hostess takes this all to heart and pushes herself to the point of tears to insure our needs and joys are meet. It is a day of just plain all about treating and nurturing the creative sprit in an environment filled with good food , art and love . Thank God for these events that provide us this outlet. Thank you Kim. Thank you Lisa , Ruth and my darling Maija for suggesting my name to Kim as a teacher and Thanks to all those behind the scene . THANKS also to you the artist that attended and support each other. But most of all THANK you to my family for helping make all those wee items for 45 kits. Deb, Aunt Barb, Mom and you too Cal. Hey am I ready for the oscars Oh... but my speech is to long Opsss..... .TEE HEE

Hi Julie!
Sending you a HUGE thank you for a splendid class rich with your generosity and amazing skills! I had the best time and really loved working with felt bits and creating a beautiful bouquet! I will treasure my piece forever.
I look forward to seeing you again one day.
All my best,

Julie ~ you are such an inspiration. Your class and shinning light on my event was something I will always remember. Thank you so much for your support and kindness. You are not only a blast but a loving soul as well. . .

Julie!
thank you so much for such creative inspiration. the project we made is one of very few that i have actually finished during a class. one of the best parts of your class is that so many of your techniques have solved a lot of other issues i have been struggling with in my different art projects. BEST OF ALL....PRINTED INSTRUCTIONS!!!! it is so surprising to me that so many teachers do not take the time to do this!!!! the instructions are so greatly appreciated.
xoxo
