I am teaching Lafayette, LA, right now. The ladies in my classes have been just lovely (and I must say that the food is also wonderful!)
Today one of my students, Cindy, gave me this lovely bag and I really thought I should share it with you. I don't often receive (and I never expect to receive) gifts from students. Cindy is already an accomplished appliquér. She works with a lot of wool, and cotton, and she hooks rugs. She does more but at that point i was just too impressed to remember more.
She said she often makes these bags for teachers. Aazing! That black fabric is waterproof shearling that she said she can't find any more. It feels like velvet and is stretchy. The appliqué is wool. It is now in my purse and will go with me everywhere. Thank you seems insufficient for such a nice present!

I don't know why you don't expect gifts-you are more than deserving. You give us a lot more than we give you in class. I still tell people about the class I took with you at Quilters Attic in Pine Bush and I don't even remember what year that was.

Thank you Eileen for the pat on the back! I do my best to make every class a rich experience for those who come.
