Sally and Gen
Yesterday several "blog land" friends got together at Random Arts in Saluda NC.
This is how it all came to be -
one day Martha went to Jane's shop - who loved her mixed media work and
posted a link on her blog to Martha's blog.
I saw the link, clicked on it and loved her work too! I put a link on my blog to Martha's.
My friend Julie saw Martha's link and visited her blog.
In the mean time, Jane told Sally Casper about Martha.
Martha emailed me to say that she was coming to Greenville (I live close) and would I like to get together at Jane's one day for a play day.
And that, my friends is just how wonderful, new friendships are formed online!
We spent all day at Jane's, chatting away, show and tell, making Martha write on everything that we had, convincing Julie that she isn't "just" a quilter but a mixed media fiber artist, writing down cool ideas and awesome links, eating Crazy Squirrel salads and just a little retail therapy.
Whew!
I was SO energised, so excited, so wowed by the day that I talked non-stop when I got home!
Imagine that...?! This is my painting/creating art apron. It was my husband's high school shop apron!
Like I said, we made Martha write on everything that we had...

SO glad you gals had a fun play day....sounds like a great time!! :)
Many thanks to all of my blog friends for sharing your juicy creativity here at the shop. Let's do it again soon.
oh I'm so jealous! What a great day it must have been!
Oh, it looks like so much FUN! I'm taking Martha's CalligraFUN class, and I would have done what you did --make her write on everything! LOL!
I love getting together with art blog friends; it's always a joy.
