[Ansteorra] AAA Dyeing Workshop

[Sunny Medlock]

Dear H.L. Wyllow MacMuireadhaigh

I am most interested in attending your workshop, but unfortunately, I
won't be arriving until late Friday evening.

I  was hoping that maybe there would be handouts available later, and if I
could pay you for the cost of those if possible.

Thank you,
Elisabetta  Morosini
