I am back and fully charged with lots of creative ideas. I HAD SO MUCH FUN! Oh, I can’t wait to share it all with you. I will be breaking it up by day, otherwise this would be the longest post EVER. I accomplished all my goals except for taking lots of pictures at Artfest. I will have to gather what I can from my new Artfest buddies. I did take some pictures of Seattle though.
I met up with Chara, of Sew Click Create. I have been blog buddies with Chara for at least 4 years and it was so fun to finally meet her. She is so incredibly sweet, bubbly and really fun and easy to talk to. I just had a great time hanging out with her. We went to lunch and then she took me to Fabric Crush, a very beautiful store. I am hoping to make it a yearly event, to see Chara every time I go to Artfest. Next, I hope to not be so tired (with big bags under eyes). I had a 515am flight to catch that morning and had to wake up at 300am, YUK!
As I went across to Bainbridge Island on the ferry, the clouds broke away perfectly for my shots of the Seattle skyline.
Once I got over to the other side, it was pouring. It rained all the way to Port Townsend, an hour drive, then was perfectly sunny again once I reached the fort. Magic I tell you!
I’ll be back again tomorrow to tell you about my first Artfest class.
thx for taking me along with you on this journey. so wished i had known about these art retreats before we moved overseas – they sound amazing. i look forward to reading more about your experience, regina. lovely photos. 🙂
I love going to Seattle! I haven’t been to Fabric Crush yet tho ~ looking forward to hearing more about Art Fest!
Beautiful pictures. I was in Seattle last year and it is just beautiful there. Didn’t get to go to Bainbridge Island – next time I’ll be sure too!
Hip, hip… horay! Artfest… lucky gal :]
Washington State, God’s country. I will be moving to Whidbey Island this summer.I am so ready to leave the city… and start a new adventure :]
Oh, that fabric store looks like a little bit of heaven. Can’t wait to hear more about your ArtFest experience.
Oh! I had no idea this was in Port Townsend. Fancy that. My Uncle lives there and the fam and I make a nearly yearly trip… it’s such a beautiful place and is so refreshing to my soul…
