Wynona Studios

What a fun night! Our friend Rae Gordon http://www.raegordon.com/ was one of the featured performers for last nights First Friday Art Walk http://downtownoregoncity.org/ celebration in historic, downtown Oregon City. We were lucky to get her to play in front of the shop for the evening, with the other live musical act down by Hopp’s.  She got all gussied up a dress that reminded me a bit of the Andrews Sisters and high heels (so not her usual style) so she would match the “vibe” at Wynona. She even sang a song for Willie, our sweet shop dog.  He was so excited he scampered about (so not his usual style). We had tons of people in who had not heard of us before and were excited to take a class, or sit and knit, or weave. We had two lovely ladies in, one of them visiting from Massachussets, who were curious about why we had all the baseballs in the basket (did you know there is YARN inside baseballs?) and wanted to know about deconstructing sweaters. Since they were not able to make the class, I gave them a quick tutorial. We also had a young Emma, who reminded us very much of our teenage Emma, who took our pink feather boa and boogied down to Rae’s singing. She ruled the sidewalk for a good portion of the evening. We had so  much fun….but no camera. So you will just have to take our word for it. And thanks Rae!
