Day One was held at the nursery, cafe and historic buildings of Terrain.  The grounds were so beautiful and charming.  The family-style meals were spectacular in true Norwegian Sweet-Paul style!

My first class was Extraordinary Embroidery in the "Mushroom House" taught by the talented Adriana Torres.  Needless to say, I will not quit my day job, but I had a lot of fun getting to learn a new needle art.  Adriana also makes these incredibly cute amigurumi animals.
