Michael and I will both be there. Pretty sure I took a class from you late last year, we did jingle bells. I wish I could make it this weekend. Sadly, I have other plans. I hope to make it to a class again soon. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
electrathon Report post Posted August 7, 2015 LOL Yes, jingle bells are always popular. I had someone ask me the other day if I was going to do them again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
terrypen Report post Posted August 8, 2015 Dang, I didn't know you guys did those at Tandy that often! I live up in Rainier but work in Aloha, unfortunately I work graveyard and Friday night is one of my regular nights. Maybe one of these days I'll be able to stay up long enough after work to make one of them. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
electrathon Report post Posted August 8, 2015 Call the store (the Portland one) and ask to be put on the email list for classes. Once a month you will get an email saying what slashed wil happen that monts. There is one on most Saturday's. As a side, Ed LaBarre (Bearman) is going to do a class Sept 18-20. This is a rare chance to learn from one of the masters. We will be making a notebook with leaves on the front and curved basketweave on the back.
