a note from Kippen….

"I thank you so much for my weaving day. You offer a lovely environment for spending time, in addition to your weaving instruction and assistance. I have laid out my weaving panel - just to look at it the past few days and smile. It was a good first effort and it pleases me. 

It was also lovely to meet you, and Lee, too. You seem a very caring person and you made me feel very welcome. I'm sorry I arrived so stressed. You very kindly allowed me to settle in and proceed with the day. 

I thank you for all of this,

Kippen"

"P.S. I put batteries in my cord & fringe maker and my eyes lit up with glee!! I'm going to enjoy this handy tool.  :D"
