A Week With Nancy Crow



If you ever get the chance to take a class with Nancy Crow, by all means, DO IT! She is a giving and generous person who really wants you to "get it". It is exhausting because she expects so much from her students, but it is well worth the long days and lack of sleep. Now, I just need to carryover that work ethic to my home studio.

My fiber friend and I drove to Nancy's Timber Frame Barn from Wisconsin on October 4, 2008 to take the Reconstruction Class with Nancy. It was a beautiful time of year to view the autumn colors. The facilities at the Barn are wonderful, the food is delicious and nutritious made by the talented Chef Margaret, Nancy even has her own fabric shop right there in case you "really need" some more fabric. We had a great time, meeting people from all over the country and beyond. We learned a lot about color, value, and design.
