Step by step. These photos are from my phone- sorry about the bad focus on some.

17 fish- all the pieces cut out and piled.

Step 2- 10 are sewed up and ready to be turned. 7 are bagged and put into the fish bin for later.

Step 3- turned right-side out.

tiny world class

 update- wow, wow, and WOW! the class is now full! If you’d like to be on the waiting list, send me an email at mimik@pobox.com.

I am going to teach a Tiny World class when I am out in San Francisco for the Renegade Craft Market. Thanks to everyone who responded to my enquiry.

The class will be on Friday, July 26, 10 am to 4 pm. All materials will be included except your teacup. The cost is $85. The class will be held at Sonya Philip‘s studio in San Francisco and is limited to 8 people. I have loved teaching this class and seeing what people create. I’ve also seen some wonderful groups of friends or mother/daughter pairs take the class together. This class is accessible to anyone who can thread a needle and likes details!

If you are interested in taking the class, I have listed it in my Etsy shop, here. Or, if you’d rather, send me an email (mimik@pobox.com) and I will send you a Paypal invoice.

I now have a class in San Francisco and one in New Hampshire. I am also working on scheduling 2 more classes for the fall in New England. This is turning into my year of teaching!

teaching in San Francisco?

tiny worldsI will be in San Francisco again this summer for the Renegade Craft Market on July 27 and 28. I am thinking about teaching a Tiny World class while I’m there. It would be either before (Thurs 7/25 or Fri 7/26) or after the show (Tues 7/30). Is anyone interested?

Details- it is a 6 hour workshop, 8 people max, cost will be approx. $75. I am trying to gauge interest before I buy my plane tickets.

And, don’t forget I will be at the Art Retreat just a few weeks later. I’m filling up my teaching schedule!

Yep! I went down to the beach in North Carolina for some brisk beach walks and salty air.

5:2:hatteras15:2:hatteras2There is cactus there. And people zipping around the water using kites.

5:2:hatteras3Lots of pretty beaches for walks.

5:2:hatteras4And lighthouses.

5:2:hatteras55:2:hatteras65:2:hatteras7Big dunes and bird watching.

5:2:hatteras8Did I mention that my daughter was part of the group?

5:2:hatteras9And then a very long drive in the pouring rain.

5:2:hatteras10The last leg was a train trip from Connecticut back to Boston. One of the things I love about the train is all the views of the undersides of the world.

5:2:hatteras11And I’m home! Hopefully I will be back to work soon and get some things finished up and posted. So much to do including the garden which came to life when I was gone. See you soon!
