I am just about to update everyone on my workshops in California but before I do that let me give you a little info re ordering our book, Chrissie and I are getting a lot of questions about where and when it will be available to purchase. We are self publishing through Blurb, this means that the book will be available to buy online as soon as we have the final projects uploaded and edited!!! Because of the extremely tight time schedual I am under at the moment the book will be available to order sometime from the middle of next week but it may be that I have to do a little revision to text, images etc. from US if I discover any small errors when I get the hard copy. This means that if you are really keen to get your hands on nyour own buy it next week, if you want to wait another couple of weeks and get a revised edition (if it needs revision) please do so! I am going to be ordering my own first copies and having them sent directly to Loomis as there won’t be time to get them posted here before I leave on my travels, I can’t wait for both the book and the travels! If you live in US and are participating in any of the workshops and order a copy prior to my arrival ,of course I would be delighted to write a personal dedication in the book for you!!! I believe the books will take approx 7 to 10 days to arrive from the time of purchase, hope this answers all those questions. Now on to the CA workshop update …..
You may remember that I was to be joining other teachers for a wonderful Mother’s Day Fiber Retreat in Downieville but this has been changed to two workshops with me in house at The Tin Thimble in Loomis because finances were preventing people booking a longer extended stay with accomodation. Emma has posted all the details to their website but I have also cut and copied the main info from there and included it here at the end of this post. If you live anywhere within striking distance of Loomis do please come along, we are going to be having SUCH FUN!!! Last year was brilliant and I have to say that I am really looking forward to spending some extra time myself with Sharon. I have so many ideas in my head and Sharon (Emma’s mum) is the master of adding a few judicious stitches into almost finished felt, I am hoping she will help me translate some of my ideas into gorgeous, simple, wearable clothing! Anyway, enough writing for the moment, scroll down to read the info and if you would like to book your place please email Emma asap.

Yipppeeee!!!! Will be ordering my book ASAP. You can then autograph it and just scratch through any typos when you arrive;-) I can’t wait to get my hands on a copy…I know that it will be fantastic. Even more so, I can’t wait to see you.
Big hugs,
Dawn
Hope you publish the ordering info for the book so we can get in line. Good luck. shirley
I am joining the ‘band wagon, too. I want a book!!!! Will I have to order it online or will you bring it to the workshop in Loomis, California?? Really looking forward to the book. Cannot wait for the workshop and felting……
Like Dawn, I send a hug too

Hi Carole, So looking forward to meeting in The Tin Thimble at last! Yes, you will need to order the book online because as we used Blurb to self publish we don’t have any copies ourselves unlike if we went down the traditional route. Chrissie and I need to order the books the same way as everyone else and they just won’t arrive here in Ireland before I leave for U.S. next week. XXX
