back from the Gathering

Hi, all. I'm back from the ISGB Gathering. What a great time! I also bought a bead by Nancy Tobey - my first boro bead. It has purple, magenta and blue tones. Did ok at the Bead Bazaar, more sales than last year, but next year if I got to Portland, I don't think I'll do the BB, you miss out on seeing everyone's beads. Just a few trips around the room. Felt quite the celebrity - I had a bead in the All Members show and they made a poster out of pictures of all the beads. People kept coming up to me for my autograph - what fun! Patti

I'm so envious! A friend of mine went to the Gathering too, but I haven't heard back from her yet.

I'll be seeing you there next year, tho!

Excellent. Please keep me posted, since this seems like an opportunity made in heaven for several of us to get together to gab and drool.

It's amazing how many people who turn up here saying "I do A, B and C

-- but I don't do X" eventually wind up trying X and liking it a lot, and being thrilled with the results.

Take Tink's award-winning necklace, for example. Not bad for someone who 'doesn't do stringing'...

It looks like we'll be doing that for the BABE show in Nov in the Bay Area (CA)

I'll photograph it before he takes it... maybe I can get Moxley to put it up on our family website!

If we can manage it, it should be a major blast.

It would be fun, but I doubt that I'll get to go to Portland. Our 25th anniversary is next year and I'm holding out for another trip to Paris, which is the MOST romantic place on earth. Lou has never been there, although I have been there 4 times!!! Patti
