I'm Baaaaack!

I feel like I've been on a world-wide odyssey, but it's been less than that, of course. My three week trip to Shreveport, New Jersey, and Philadelphia was quite the trek, full of adventures like saving an ungrateful snapper turtle on the road, torrential rains, me sleeping through the Virginia earthquake, and lots and lots of fun beading moments. I swear I slept for days when I returned!

And as I finally recovered, it was all to apparent that I needed to be working on book projects like YESTERDAY. So I hunkered down to do that. A quick weekend trip to teach at Beads by Blanche in New Jersey last weekend broke things up, but now I'm back to book, book, book all the time!

BUT! I have something really cool and important to share with you before I start talking about book stuff. Because my next two classes with Beaducation.com have launched! And we figured it was a good time to have another blog contest to celebrate!

Blog Contest

Ogalala Lace
All you have to do is leave a comment on this page, or if you have trouble, you can email me at jill@tapestrybeads.com to enter. I'll collect entries until Thursday, Sept. 23rd at 6pm CST. Then I'll announce the winner here on Friday! The lucky winner will receive a free Beaducation.com class of his or her choice.

The new classes are Parisian Lights, and Ogalala Lace Bracelet. SO much fun! Check them out!

    The online classes look great! I bought the kit for the darker green parisian lights a while back and would like to get more. Are you still selling the kits as well? Good Luck with this new venture!
