what was most beneficial to you and your practice?

"...the opportunity to have a hands-on experience with the students. It's much easier to do again when you know how to do something. Also, Ewa shared with us the amounts, brands and where to purchase - this helps us to know how and where to begin to do these projects again. We have done batik and felting [on our own] again and the projects were successful."
