Join me this Friday at our first Taking Back Friday Live of 2023! The second Friday of each month, instead of sharing a pre-recorded Taking Back Friday vlog, we go LIVE on the SweetGeorgia YouTube channel to have a casual catch-up. This month is all about our excitement for the new year—looking ahead to what’s coming soon at SweetGeorgia and the School of SweetGeorgia, plus the latest news about what we’ve been working on.
We’ll be live Friday, January 13th at 10:00 am PST (1:00 pm EST)! Bring your knitting, crochet or whatever you’re working on and join me in the YouTube live chat online.
If you’re unable to make it live, the video will continue to be available for viewing following the livestream. You can also find past vlog episodes over at Felicia’s Notebook at the blog.
UPDATE: Livestream replay is now available (above).
