Look at the magical places these hands have stitched!  This was a class of 12, and naturally I only got a picture with the last 4, because I only ever remember at the very end 😂. 

These classes bring me so much joy. Actually, it’s the students that bring all the joy. It’s such a privilege to get to work with so many lovely human beings.
