Another Year, Another Fair…
…is history. Given the economy the fair did okay. Sales were down overall for everyone, not just me. The up side to that is that I have plenty of inventory for the rest of the current show season. 🙂 What I need to do, however, is come up with some new product. I really haven’t…

Day Three…
…is over for us. We worked the mid-shift today. Sundays are generally slower with more ‘lookers’ than buyers. Today followed the norm. It was a treat to visit with some of the Seattle guild members. They were doing their Sheep to Shawl demo today. It was a particular delight to have a short visit with…

Day Two…
…has dawned, another lovely day with temps in the 80’s. Who says the Pacific Northwest rains all the time???? 😀 The nice thing about staying with a friend is that I have internet access and this morning received confirmation that I am booked to teach in Missouri next May. So I’m looking forward to –…

Road Trip
We took the trip south in two stages – the highway has 6 major construction zones which could potentially add an hour or more to the trip. In reality it went fairly smoothly, but rained on and off for much of the drive. But we’re here. Now to gather up all my stuff, take it…

What a Difference
a week makes! We got home around 9:30 pm with the plum trees just past their peak. There is still lots of snow at higher elevations. We even had some on the trip to Olds last Thursday and there was lots left on the mountain peaks on our return. I don’t remember the name of…

On the weaving front, I got two shawls woven yesterday, labelled and priced yarn and packed up another couple of boxes for the trip to…

Grand Forks, BC
The drive to Grand Forks was overcast and wet until I got past Beaverdell and nearly to Rock Creek, but after that the road was dry and the drive most pleasant. 🙂 I’d only ever driven through Grand Forks so I took the opportunity to walk around the town a little. Thought this building was…

Busy Day
It’s been a rather busy day and a productive one, I think. 🙂 Here is the skirt fabric – all done! With barely two yards woven by 9:15 pm last night, that means I wove about 7 yards today. In between getting orders from Art Fire packed up and to the mail, coning off more…
