Pre-Convention - Day One


Although the convention hasn’t officially begun, the fun has! Or is it the fingerpointing for assigning jobs?!  Personally, I'm getting out of here, before the fingers point in my direction! :)



Rachel and Lynn each pointing to the other...


Another registration period was held this morning and everyone had a good time oohhing and aahhing over tote bag favors and round table offerings. I've already filled out my shopping list. 


Some of the awesome roundtables offerings.
 
 
Pre-convention workshops started this morning bright and early at 8:00 AM. The variety of workshops this convention is amazing and the skills of the designers and the participants inspiring.


Judith Andraka's Matrix Making for Molds Workshop



Linda Raih's Gingerbread House Workshop

The Hospitality Room is getting ready for you as well as Katrina and her helpers busily set up the room.

The excitement is already building along with the laughter and friendship.
