Needlebook Encore

The Hari-kuyo Needlebook E-course is winding down.

And so is my dance with needlebooks for this Spring.

I just finished up the ties on this pastel version the other day...

It was a thrill to see needlebooks made all over the world...I especially loved the many little tweeks and personal touches that each bookmaker added to make their needlebook special.

Give yourself a treat and visit the Flickr group for the class to see how to say "Broken but not Forgotten" in different languages...

And to feast your eyes on all the different fabrics and approaches that were taken with this needlebook.

If you or someone you know is interested in taking this class...I will be offering it again...maybe in the Fall or January 2012. I'm not sure exactly when, but it will be before the Hari-kuyo festival in February of next year. If you'd like to receive advance notices about the next class, email me and I will add you to the mailing list.

In creating the lessons, I happened to make a few extra books along the way.

I have this one Needlebook available for sale today, first-come, first-served...

She was my Cover Girl and starred in all my photo shoots...

I'll miss her but it's Spring and it's time for this one to fly the coop...

Sold.

Thanks to you all for the support and enthusiasm you've given to my first online course offering.

It was a real thrill to offer a class to bookmakers all over the world from my own home here in Maryland. I still can't get over how cool that is...

I hope to offer more online courses in the future. I have some fun ideas cooking up in my brain but I'd love to hear from you. If you have any desires on what type of class you might like to take, drop me an email and let me know your thoughts...

Who knows? Maybe it could end up as an e-course.

Happy Needling everyone.
