I spent yesterday afternoon getting my stuff ready for the Finger Lakes Tatting Seminar this weekend. This is the first time in a couple years that I'm not teaching so I'm excited about being able to relax and enjoy to weekend. When you teach you totally miss out on the other classes!
There still a few things that need to be done. I have to figure out what I need for each class and make sure I bring it. I'm sure that if I forget something I can pick it up there. I'm bringing my books and samples of the patterns. I've already picked up my US dollars for the trip and boy did that hurt! I've been spoiled the last couple years when the exchange rate was so close to even.
Each year I make a kit with a pattern that is sold for $1. The money goes to a scholarship fund set up to help people attend the seminar. I figure they get more money from the kits than anything I've donated to the silent auction! This year I'm using magnetic beads to make a needle minder kit.
