This past weekend, I got to spend my Saturday with an amazing group of ladies at The Pursue Workshop in the beautiful Carlton Landing. I was so excited when the gals of Pursue announce that Carlton Landing would be the first stop in their tour. I have always wanted to go to Carlton Landing to see the lovely  town and their beautiful homes and it was no surprise that everything was just stunning!

I think I may have a new obsession and I see making jam in my near future.  After we mingled and got to meet all the other gals attending the workshop, we jumped into Brush Script Calligraphy with Molly Perkins. I have never really worked with watercolors before and I loved the concept. It was so fun to explore and try calligraphy with a brush versus a pen.

She made us the most wonderful sandwiches and mini pumpkin pies. I am pretty sure I need to be her neighbor so I can eat her yummy cooking on a daily basis.
