It is a shame when that there are those who wish to just coppy for the sake of making a profit without even realizing that if they included themselves and created their own personal work that it would enrich the world. It happens way too often and to too many artists that I have known.<br /><br />Will you ever do a workshop near the East Coast of the United States? (Montreal/ Ottawa area or the Caribbean?) I am sorry it is so difficult to teach here. Thank you for your wise words, your creativity and continuing to share on a personal level.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17907873175896880450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9053562711351336005.post-60076846813738707212017-11-27T02:09:27.930+10:302017-11-27T02:09:27.930+10:30Yes--you are right--Coupeville, Whidbey Island.

I love slow stitching and your gentle grace in presenting your class was much appreciated. I wish I could afford one of your classes outside the U.S.--but can't hope we have a change of leadership and you will choose to come back.
