A full house in the shop yesterday for Nancy's
Burlap Wreath & Herbal Salve class!
 |
| Nancy, Heather, Jonette & Gail listening intently to Nancy's herbal expertise ~ |
She talked about all of the herbs that we used in the healing salve,
...and the history of the herbs as well ~
Nancy melted the base for the salve in the crockpot and as it melted,
we then moved onto the wreath class...
 |
| great job Nancy! |
Nancy had prepared all of the supplies ahead of time for us
and brought her wreath model for us to see...
 |
| ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
Robin, Jane & Pat
wrestling with their burlap...
I must confess it was a little tricky at first,
but patient teacher Nancy assured us all we could do this!
 |
| "is this right?....how did she do it? halp!!!" |
slowly, with many trials false-starts,
...our wreaths came together....
 |
| Heather, Sharon & Gail |
 |
| Nita, Flea & Pat making their burlap wreaths ~ |
talented hands...
always busy with something to do ~
 |
| Jane's beautiful hands .... |
of course we had to be fortified,
so there was plenty of food ~
 |
| Thank you girls, for the treats!!! |
Nancy brought along some drieds from her gardens for us to adorn our wreaths with ~
 |
| beautiful basket! |
Sweet Jane posing with the finished wreath ~

Lori...Your class looks like it was so much fun! I love t he wreaths..beautiful! Just makes me sad I'm so far away..would love to take your wool applique class in January! Your shop is just wonderful! A needle worker's dream!
i love my burlap wreath! wish i lived closer so i could have taken the class.
These are so pretty! While I love my little cabin the woods, it is far from kindred spirits! However, I hope hope hope to come to the Christmas open house!
Enjoyed the class so much! Great to learn new skills, spend time with a wonderful group of creative women and eat good food. Thank you Lori for the hospitality and the oh so sweet card and gifts. Looking forward to the next class.
I so wish there was a shop like this out here (California).
Your wreath class looks like a big success with beautiful wreaths. I was tickled to find a copy of your book in Attic Heirlooms booth over the weekend. I am enjoying reading through it, what to stitch first?
Happy Thanksgiving.
HEY GIRLS ~
I love to travel to teach! if anyone wants me to come to them to teach, EMAIL ME!
Lori :))))
I love the look of that burlap in a wreath. And hmmm...I have burlap, leaves, berries, whaddya know? :~P
What a treat it was to be part of the wreath class, yesterday!! Your hospitality, Nancy's patient instruction, and the positive energy of all those friendly ladies made it a very special event!! As always, it was so nice to see the sweet critters, too.
Thanks so much for your gift!
Hugs.....
What fun Lori! I wish I could have set in on the burlap wreath making. I just bought me the supplies to make one. Never have done it before, hope I can pull if off!
Your classes look like so much fun Lori!! Wished I lived closer!!
