I got mail...!!!

I mentioned in a previous post that I got some wonderfull news when attending at a David Hurley workshop. Well it was just an email so I wanted to wait a bit longer to be sure.
But this week there arrived a big envelope when I got home from work! Yes.....!!
Now I know I'm not dreaming anymore.....

I feel so honored.....because the IGMA has awarded me with a Scholarship for the Guild School 2012 at Castine. So now it's time to decide which workshops to follow. And that's very difficult since there are so many nice/interesting workshops to choose from.

On the website of IGMA you can read more about it, here http://www.igma.org/guild_school/scholarships2012.html you read more about the Guild Scholarship Program.

  21. Hi Sophia,
    Thank you....have you been there?
    This year Geoff Wonnacott doesn't give a workshop at Castine if I'm correct.
    But I've picked some other interesting classes.
    I'll keep my fingers crossed and hopefully get my first choice.
