It was an awesome experience and the instructor was wonderful. She was very patient and knowledgeable in the craft.
Thank you so much for joining the workshop today. I was really happy and encouraged to receive your review so quickly. When you completed the thin washi at the end, I was truly delighted and relieved as well. I hope you will continue making washi and expand the range of your creations. My mascot cat and I are looking forward to seeing you again!
