June Classes - Better Late Than Never!

Hi Everyone,

Sorry for the delay in getting out the June class schedule. I was away for a few weeks and had very limited computer access and when I got home my phone and internet were out. Finally got a repairman out yesterday afternoon and it looks like I'll be limping along a litte while longer. They're coming back to rewire my house within the next two weeks. Once that's done things should be back to normal so I'll be posting on a more regular basis. In the mean time, here's the class schedule for the rest of June and July.

June 18 - Daisy Chain Bracelet ( Beginner)
June 25 - Hemp Knotting (Beginner)

July 2 - Summer Style Anklets and Bracelets (Beginner/Intermediate)
July 9 - Earring Wardrobe (Beginner/Intermediate)
July 16 - Peyote Stitch Bracelet - Part 1 (Beginner)
July 23 - Peyote Stitch Bracelet - Part 2 (Beginner/Intermediate)
July 30 - Bead Social/UFO Night (All Levels)

I need to get my August schedule in ASAP so let me know if you have any suggestions.

Hope to see you soon!

Calling all UFOs!!!

It's that time of the month again!

Gather up/dust off your UFOs (UnFinished Objects) and join us Wednesday night at AC Moore in Dover/Rockaway.

Don't bead alone! This is a working class for beaders who may have questions or need a quick refresher in any area of beading. There will be no specific instruction but lots of one-on-one time with students. A great class to get motivated to finish your UFOs, get back into beading, start a new project, or for social beading. Also, a chance to meet new friends and see old ones. Please bring along some of your finished projects to show the class.

Supplies: UFOs, beads, stringing material and findings
Cost: $15 + supplies

If you're coming to this class please send me an email with what you need help with/what you're working on so that I bring the correct tools/materials.

With the price of gas so high, if you don't want to make a special trip to the store to sign up in advance (they aren't taking sign ups over the phone) you can sign up Wednesday night before class. Just be sure to get there a little early.

Hope to see you Wednesday!

I'm Back... Sort of...

I'm having some problems with my ISP so I'm unable to stay connected for any length of time. Land line phone isn't working either. I didn't realize that this problem has been going on for a while. I've been sending emails but they don't seem to be getting to their intended recipients. If you've tried to call or email me or have been expecting an email response from me, I hope to have everything working early in the week.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Julie :-)
