I'm a traveling fool

Just got back from teaching Noses, Roses and Other Fun Stuff at Atlanta Needlepoint.  What a delightful group of ladies.  Can't wait to go back again.  The class is based on my new book and is a notebook class.  We had 2 full days of fun learning and getting to know each other.  Here's a picture of some of the students working on their canvas.  Denise, the owner of Atlanta Needlepoint, is talking about having me back to teach another one of my classes "How to write your own stitch guide" where we are going to learn about picking canvases, stitches and threads to develop your own stitch guide.  I'll also be teaching a one-day project class so watch for more information.

I had a tough time at night deciding where I was going for dinner.  Since I live in a small town with only a Whataburger and love different kinds of food, it was really hard to walk out of my hotel room and see a fish restaurant, Greek and two American restaurants within a block.  Ended up going to Buckhead Dinner one night.  I thought it was going to be a real dinner so imagine my surprise to see white coated waiters.  It was tough making a decision but after telling the waiter to come back 3 times, I finally decided and it was delicious.  Then back to the hotel where the smell of fresh baked chocolate chip cookies and popped popcorn tempted me more.  Thoroughly stuffed I went back to my room to stitch.  Needless to say I was one happy person.

Going to go up to Austin tomorrow for the Needlepoint National Facebook group Texas gathering.  It will be fun to meet people whose name I've seen on Facebook.

Well off to pack my bags.
