We are in the final stages of preparing for the inaugural CRAFT NAPA event in January, and I have to say…we are having an absolute blast putting this together!
Check out the CRAFT NAPA apron:
A closer look:
This apron was designed specifically for coloring. Every CRAFT NAPA participant will got a complimentary apron so we can color with fabric markers and add some stitching in the BERNINA sewing room or in the wine bar after hours.
Indigo with the help of Larissa Davis also designed a slick catalog for the workshops:
I really can’t be happier with how this inaugural event is coming together, and while we are in the final stretch until registration closes, a CRAFT NAPA teacher blog hop has commenced where one lucky person will win a $500 gift certificate to eQuilter!
Just comment on the following blogs (look for their CRAFT NAPA posts), and you could be in the running to win this $500 gift certificate. I will be announcing the winner after December 10th on this blog and also on the Crafting a Life website.

Thanks to our CRAFT NAPA sponsors!
I generally work a bit looser than you but I’m gonna give the grid thing a try! Have some works in progress so I’ll see if I can use that approach and maybe they will become finished works! Thanks for the inspiration and idea.
Elizabeth’s post for today seems not to be ready… Really tried to hop there. 🙂 Will this do for an entry?
Sure, but it’s there. Here is the direct link: http://wp.me/p5Dmq9-vn
Love the apron! Thanks!
Love your whole idea for creating a creative life – would love to attend your workshops – thanks for the chance to win!
Craft Napa sounds like so much fun! Wish I could join all of you. Have fun!!!
I am so looking forward to Craft Napa. I moved to Napa in October and was thrilled to find your website. See you in January!
Thanks so much for the Blog Hop! It was a blast from beginning to end! Can’t wait to attend one of your craft retreats. Thanks so much for your help finding the pattern for the trim a house Christmas ornament made several years ago at Houston. I taught My granddaughters special needs class how to make them and their houses will be sold this Friday at the school craft fair. (Think I left a comment each day but had a slight issue with December 6th. Keeps telling me it’s waiting on review). Congrats on your new adventure and chapter in your amazing life.
I plan on taking more classes in 2016. So looking forward to Craft Napa in the new year
