Oh, the fun people you meet! Sounds like a Dr. Seuss book title.
I briefly met Regina of RGR Designs. She was running late and we didn’t have a chance to chat, but it’s still nice to meet someone in person that you’ve talked to online.
I met Tera of Beadygirl Beads I bought some FUN beads from Tera. They are pictured below. I just love how she has her beads strung up on cards.

I visited with Carole Rodgers. She’s written several books and many magazine articles. I learned 2 needle right angle weave from her several years ago at a bead society meeting.
Cheryl Erickson of Artistic Bead, Inc. and the Iowa Bead Society are the ones who put on the bead show. I took a class from Cheryl years ago and have to say she is a wonderful and patient teacher.
And more great people….Amy from Amy’s Creative Bead. Dennis and crew from FishLips3 Beads & Blues. How can someone not be great with a name like FishLips3? LOL! There were lots more, but I’m running out of steam here.
I do have to mention my neighbor at the show, Dawn Tomlinson. She makes the cutest, littlest lampwork beads. She’s as cute as her beads. I really enjoyed visiting with her.
