Our first Bead Retreat was a huge success! Would you like to see some
of it?

We hope to be able to hold another Bead Retreat next year! We'll keep
you posted!

Looking forward to meeting many of you at an upcoming show. If any
shows are added, I'll notify you asap. I'll also send out local
reminders a week or so before each show.

Happy Beading All!
