Back From the Midwest

So I am back!! It was a great weekend -- well -- except for the continual coughing on my part. Luckily for me, both my roommate and my students were very forgiving of the occassional hacking fest. The good news is that my voice did hold out for the whole event. The bad news is I STILL have the cough, so I am going to the doctor a bit later today.

If you keep track of my projects, you will see that I got a fair bit of knitting done which was a bit surprising since I forgot to pack a couple extra balls in my carry-on and had used up what I brought before even getting on the plane to head out!! Oh well, it is good to read every once in a while.

My classes went well, but that of course was because I had the greatest students!!! Several of my classes are geared to those new knitters ready to move on. They are the greatest students because they are just like a sponge and want to learn all that you can offer. It makes you feel really good as a teacher. Also, three ladies from my first class of beginners showed up for my Alternative Fibers class -- Joyce, Frankie and Dyana are always a hoot!



So now I am getting ready for Stitches East and expect to have another great time. Teaching really is the best!!!
