heading to Atlanta

In the morning I head to  Atlanta Georgia to teach two classes  at Jill Coopers I have not yet met Jill  and yes  she is really married  to Jack- Tee Hee . I am sure  it will feel as if we  have known each other as  she is part of "the  clan" you know- creative folks !!  I know it  will be another "best time". Speaking of creative folks  and best times ,when I was teaching in  Portland at  Art and Soul , 2 weeks ago , I did the  three day class with  Nina Bagly .What can I say about this woman , she  is an old soul!! My soul is just a teenagers compared to her.  Here is what I made. The class was called " because I want to remember"  and yes I learned a lot and will remember the Nina wire wrap  !! Thanks   Nina.

Finally! Absolutely gorgeous, Julie! And, it does resemble mine at least the construction...only yours is more delicate and intricate. Love it!

Thanks for the little spook. I'm sending paypal.
Love you dearly.

You are so lucky! I would LOVE to meet Nina. I've followed her for years and years. She was the first artist making altered jewelry that I had ever seen. The two of you together? That would be such a treat!!! Love this necklace.

Beautiful necklace! I love it!

On a side note. I've been thinking a lot lately on how I never go anywhere when I take vaction time. I just stay home and get caught up with things. But I've decided that life is too short, so I'm making a list of places I want to visit:
Paris
London
Martha's Vineyard
Montana
Any place YOU are teaching a class!
So, I'm saving my money and planning adventures!
