Hi:
I would love to order the Traditional rug hooking, Ginger Bread Man, and the Teddy Bear. I understand Ruth Emerson teaches the class, but I live in Winnipeg Manitoba so I can’t attend her classes, But I would love to learn and make the Christmas ornaments, and order the kits.
Please let me know how I can order the kits.
Thank you very much for everything!!
From, Brenda Freeman.
Hope to hear from you soon!!!!
