Happy Thanksgiving with a Spin Artiste Feature

Happy Thanksgiving! I hope everyone enjoyed a wonderful meal! So to aid digestion over the computer, I’m so excited to be the featured artist on the Spin Artiste website this weekend!

Weaving- A Perfect Marriage to Art Yarn

I was so lucky to be able to stand up for one of my best girlfriends as a bridesmaid in her wedding. I was also very happy to make her “something old” and “something blue” Of course I took this chance to spin the most beautiful yarn and weave something amazing for my beautiful friend.

Post SAFF Shop update!!

SAFF was so fantastic- and I brought home plenty of goodies to share with the shops! New yarns will come mid November, but this week I’ll list fiber- art batts, hand dyed tops, and hand dyed locks and fleece.

Celebrating Fall with SAFF!

What a wonderful way to celebrate Fall, with the Southeastern Animal Fiber Fair (SAFF).  Teaching and vending- We packed the trailer and headed to Asheville, NC, which is nestled along the Blue Ridge Parkway in the Great Smoky Mountains.
