Our friend, Sue Kelemen, will be leaving the St. Louis area. Many of you know Sue from her classes at both For Keeps Sake and Checkered Cottage. Sue and her husband Tom are retiring near their extended family in North Carolina. We're happy for Sue but sad for all of us.
Sue has been teaching her popular Preserving the Past classes for years. With Sue's permission, I'm going to continue the tradition of Heritage Layouts at Checkered Cottage. I'm hoping I can do half as good a job as Sue has done.
She always had a great group of gals joining her and I'm hoping all of you jump on board with my Heritage Layouts.
