What a lovely email to read for any of us who have never attended anything
like this before. A bit like having a peek in a lovely sweetie (candy) shop
window.
Although I enjoy reading about the conventions this is the first email that
has ever really made me feel that it might be a lovely thing to do, so thank
you for sharing so much of your experience with us all Jane.

I live in Lincoln, NE USA and I traveled to Sacramento, CA on Amtrak. It
was a long
trip but I enjoyed it thoroughly. I downloaded some audio books from the
library onto
my iPad so I could listen while I rode - tatted some, cross-stitched some,
stared out
In the afternoon, I took the tatting class with Randy and Gary Houtz. What
fun! I met them
quite a few years ago but hadn’t taken a class from them. There were 14 in
that class.
We learned a different technique every day. Finished each motif on my
return home trip
on the train. Once again, they make sure they get to everyone so you can
learn lots.
I’m always in awe at the Teacher’s Display night. That would be my dream -
to be able
to make most of those laces and do them well. (There are some techniques
that I am
not as fond of as others, but, boy, do I appreciate the work!)
