Stitches East 2006

The Dianas had a blast this year at the 2006 stitches East in Maryland.
We did not have a chance to see all the vendors this year..Thank goodness for that.
A credit card can only take so much heat!

There were some great classes being offered. We both signed up for a Gwen Bortner's "Everything You Need to Know after Knit and Purl". Wow, and Oh Boy! Did we learn a lot.
By the end of our six hour marathon knitting class we took home an oven mitt to felt.
Yes, Gwen, we love our blessed oven mitts!

Going to these types of events and investing in a class will not only help you gain knowledge but, give you the confidence to tackle other projects that seemed beyond your skills.
Next knitting and crochet adventure.....June in New Hampshire!

I am glad that you love your blessed oven mitts!!! Everyone in class was great and you all did so well! And you are right, class is a great way to build confidence.

I haven't heard from TKGA yet, but I am usually on their list of teachers, so I hope I get to see you again in class in June.
