This was #2 workshop, the upholstered chairclass I taught.I finished mine at home |
On May 22, 2013 Some of us in our group met for an "over night miniature camp meeting." In Delevan, NY. called Duffield Camp and Retreat Center.
Yvonne always wanted to try something like this and it finally came together, it's about and an hour drive from where I live. We were all from different parts of the state as well as Canada. We met 3 new friends to come join the four of us from our group. We had 3 workshops. A popsicle stick Adirondack chair as shown, taught by Cheryl P. and I taught the upholster chair class from a tutorial by Kris Compass (http://1inchminisbykris.blogspot.com/) but this project was incomplete. I will post the one I finished, they each had the basic structure done but we stopped for the night to just sit, talk and get to know each other more and to make plans for a bigger meeting next year! We also had a "show and tell" table set up for each of us to bring some mini items they we made. It was so much fun to see the minis each one different..we had prizes, favors and gifts given to different people.
We had a nice spaghetti dinner together, snacks and lots of laughter! In the morning they made a tiny tea cup flower arrangement. I didn't stay for this I had to leave early but here's a sample-posted of the cups premade by Yvonne. So I hope we can get busy and post more minis as a group so many times we each do our own thing and not all are finished before we have to leave. If any of you live near this camp contact me for a meeting next year!
Looks like y'all had fun!
ReplyDeleteHi Chris, I couldnt find a way to comment on your other blog, so decided to try here. You don't have to publish if you don't want to. I had the same problem with unwanted blogs on my list. It seems that, if a blog that you are subscribed to is dropped by the person doing it, someone else can step in and use the address for their own purposes. I have a couple of them. So far, I have tried all kinds of solutions, including complaining to blogger. I still haven't gotten rid of them. I will let you know if I do and would you please contact me if you find something out about the situation?
ReplyDeleteThank you for your input Casey I do hope to get it off of here!!!
