Weekend at Newtons

I spent the last weekend at Newtons in Anaheim taking a class on hand-manipulated techniques that was taught by Rhaelene. It was great and I learned a lot. Unfortunately, Rhaelene made me promise not to put pictures of her swatches on my blog, so instead I have put up a picture of me holding MY swatch and a picture of most of the women who attended.



These are the women I took the hand-manipulated stitches class with (sorry for the bad grammar).



See how I blurred my gut? I've gained back 8 of the 14 pounds I lost, and I HATE IT!!!!
