Blue Thread Workshop
So much better than the Textile Arts Center version that I went to last month--a very lame class then and inadequate setting. French General -- Well-organized; they provided supplies; beautiful setting at South Street Seaport; very, very good teachers. Looking forward to classes with French General in the future.
