Hi,

Thanks so much for posting the class write ups on the blog.  I have attached the information to post. Please note that I would pro-rate the Hobby Lobby classes so that persons signing up late would still get their money’s worth. I cannot pro-rate on Sharon Lynn Wilson classes. Thanks!

Have a great day! J

Warm regards,
Irene
