OK I am on a roll....


Here I am with the lady who deserves to share the crown with DJ for BEST teacher. Stephanie Lee was an amazing teacher as well, very patient with us all as we tried to master those butane torches. I was lucky enough to take two classes with Stephanie and both were equally brilliant. So many new skills I am now attempting to master.... I wish I could have taken Stephanie's third class as well.

At the very top of this post is my finished piece - I must say a big thank you to the gorgeous Jacky for letting me use the mold she made of the little tree, didn't it turn out beautifully? I have just visited the hardware shop today to purchase flux and bits of copper so I can fine tune my new skills.

My only regret is that I didn't manage to do a class with Bernie Berlin. I did get to share a few meals with Bernie and she is also such a beautiful lady - and from all reports a fantastic teacher as well. Here is hoping that Bernie will come back to Australia in 2011 to teach again.
