2016 spring, summer, beyond!

Welcome to a long overdue update on upcoming Photography for Knitters and MORE workshops.

TNNA-  The National Needlework Arts Association Summer Tradeshow June 10&11th 2016, Washington DC

If you are interested in expanding, improving, or  just starting to get your feet wet in social media, and you are a member of TNNA, consider joining me and Beverly Army Williams for the Better Business program, on Friday June 10th.  For participants, there is also an optional hands-on Lab workshop early Saturday morning.

We'll cover how to use your words and make the best images for the social media, how to maximize your efforts, how to build a following and keep customers coming back.  It's aimed at yarn shop owners,  and indie designer, dyer or yarn businesses but applicable to all. The workshops will include my popular  iPhone/Smartphone photo class, because you can make amazing images with your phone--and post it almost immediately.  Info here.

FIBER COLLEGE OF MAINE- September 9 & 10 2016  Searsport, Maine

If you've never experienced the inspiration, beauty and creative energy that is this annual learning community (and vacation) in coastal Maine, take a peek at these listings. Both are intended to be fun, experiential, stretch your creative limbs a bit--and send you home with something new.
