Jeana’s Journal

A couple of years ago I decided to stop traveling around the country to teach quilting and to concentrate on teaching nearer to home. One of the things I did is to start a couple of different year-long classes at a shop in Salt Lake City.

Once a month I travel 100 miles to the City and teach several two-hour sessions of classes. Each year the classes have become more popular and we have kept adding more classes. Right now I am teaching five two-hour sessions, which equals well over fifty students in total.

Included in the year-long class is the understanding that for one of the monthly classes I stay home and they drive the 100 miles to come here. We turn it into a day-long sewing and eating retreat.

It is held over two days, Friday and Saturday. It was this past weekend.

This year we were close to maximum capacity on seating in my house, but we will keep figuring out ways to fit more in. Here are pictures of a few of those who attended. I didn’t think about pictures until the second day and these pictures were taken near the end of the day.

Do you think they had a good time?

And, as you can see I have not forgotten the rest of you, when I had a spare minute I was quilting away on the Christmas Quilt. It is coming along nicely.
