Dichroic Glass workshop (2)

Hi Everyone, A good time was had by all at the second Dichroic Glass workshop on July 25th. I was unable to attend but when I returned in the afternoon & I saw all the lovely pieces the ladies had made I was extremely envious. I will definately be doing the third workshop! October 25th is the date for the next workshop for beginners & Robyn thinks she will do the next advanced course in November sometime. I will advise Kym of the date soon. The Bluecare Respite Centre is as always a great place to have workshops & the next workshop will be there also. Please email me if you would like to do the class. I have nearly a full list for workshop 3 but lots of people dropped out of the last one & if anyone drops out of this one there will be places available. Email me on instyleshoes@bigpond.com if you would like to give it a go. I hope you're well, Happy Creating, Olley.
