about my Visit to the Outskirts of Heaven with my mother as well as hear
about the different ways that my husband Sinclair has reached me since
he crossed over in April, 2015. My purpose for sharing this is to
illuminate some of the many ways our loved ones attempt to reach us to
assure us that they are well and happy. My desire is for folks to
understand that death is not the end of loving relationships and that,
while we don’t have our loved ones in the flesh, they are still with us
and are looking out for us. Experience sharing is encouraged and there
will be ample time for it. Copies of the 2015 Pathways to Transformation
Event Program containing the article, “Visit to the Outskirts of Heaven”

What techniques work best? Colors, stitches, fabrics….which are good for which purpose? What books are helpful? This is *not* a class in basic embroidery, but we will learn a simple stitch and practice setting of intent, sufficient to consecrate an item.
