Where Do I Go From Here?
I was looking for direction when I attended the two Michael DeMeng workshops last summer at Valley Ridge. I had been using metal and mechanical parts and re-purposing them in collage for a number of years when something inside said, where do I go from here? Full Story >>

I had a such wonderful
weekend, as always. I have
yet to have a disappointing
class or experience. It was
great all around. Dan was so
helpful, and generous with
his time and knowledge. I
can't believe that he gave
the extra class on the
caterpillar stitch. It takes
a lot of patience to deal
with so many people with such
differing sets of skills and
wide variety of
personalities. As always,
Valley Ridge is a magical
place. Seeing that
spectacular sunset with the
double rainbow and pink cows!
What more can you ask for?
You and Bill always make me
feel so welcomed and 'at
home'. — Melanie Terasaki, Wooden Coptic Books Attendee
