I've attended hundreds of workshops over the years, but never have I been treated as such a "Queen for the Day!" :o) My heart-felt thanks to Barb of Vivi Magoo Presents for an amazing and unforgettable event. She made us all feel so welcome and special. I WILL be attending Barb's next amazing event.
I especially enjoyed Rachel Ashwell's Round Top hide-away. My dear friend and talented pmc mentor, Lisa Monroe (you gotta check out her beautiful jewelry...to die for!) were fortunate enough to stay at Rachel's Liliput Lodge. The smell old wood and comforts of shabby linens stirred fond memories of my Georgia roots.
I stayed in the "Blue Room"....ahhhh! It was pure heaven:
Liliput Blue RoomI hope you enjoy the sweet surroundings as much as I did:
Rachel Ashwell's Linen Store
Bluebonnet Cottage - Too Sweet!
Liliput Front Bedroom

The Lodge - This is Where We "Worked"
We actually did get some work done.It was an honor and privilege to study under two talented artists, Deryn Mentock and Diane Cook. Thank you for giving me the courage to mix my metals. :o)

Hi, Rosemary. The workshop was good for the soul! :o)
Daphne, I do believe this was just what the doctor ordered.
What a way to soothe the soul and learn all at the same time.

Hi Deb, it was my friend Lynda that went on this wonderful trip. I was invited to go but just couldn't find the extra time. After seeing all of these gorgeous pictures I wished I could have gone.
