Cecily- We do offer traveling classes. We need a big bunch of gals (perhaps 20) ready for a fun filled weekend of two or three classes. Let me know if you want more details;)
Rebekka
See you soon Julia! |

I am such a tease...
I found the most fabulous buttons out at the farm on Monday afternoon! You girls will be hunting through baskets of vintage buttons that just can't be bought anymore. I can't wait to see what you all create with them. Right now I am making button rings and earrings in white and silver that are perfect for holiday parties. I might try a button brooch to match if I have time;)
Grace, are you coming?
See you soon, Rebekka

Can you believe the class is tomorrow? If you haven't signed up but want to come join us just show up, this is a nice long class and we will have plenty of time to finish a few projects and plan lots more.
Warmly, Rebekka

We had our class yesterday in Coeur d Alene, all of the ladies came up with new variations on the designs I shared and we left with gobs of new jewelry and ideas for our next batch of handmades. We were each able to make three pairs of earrings, several rings and a bracelet in between story telling and laughing;)
Can I tell you (like I do after every class I teach) how lucky I feel to be in the company of such amazing women?
If you would like to be on our email list for future classes please let me know. We will resume Pay Dirt classes after the holidays. To get more project ideas between now and then read MaryJane's magazine and the Cluck- that is the online newsletter for members of the Farmgirl Sisterhood. You can call the farm or sign up online.
And a HUGE thank you to Julia for putting me up in her cozy farmhouse, what a treat to have that time with your sweet family.
Warmly, Rebekka

Debbie-
Loading photos on this site is a bit of a bugger. I have to go over the instructions every time I do it. It is sometimes easier to put them into a blog. Is there someone that could post some that way for you???
I would love to see what you all made so thanks for giving it a try!!

Sorry- I have not checked this thread is a while. Florida sounds nice this time of year for sure!
I did not have a camera with me at that class so sadly I have none to share.
I have been getting your emails for patterns, a tutorial or something. I hear you and I will run it all by the Queen Bee;)

Carrie,
I'll try to work on this. It's about time I figure these things out! I'll get some pix taken of the stuff, but maybe Rebekka can too, because I didn't get as much done that day. She is much faster than I am because I was just learning, but it was fun, and my friend and I made lots of earrings for Christmas presents. I'll keep you informed.
