expect me when you see me

So this is it everyone! I am heading off to Pennsic tonight, the excitement starts tomorrow and lasts for two weeks! I hope you don’t forget about me while I’m gone and be sure to return the middle of August. Hopefully I will have some projects and purchases to share.

A few things before I go. The Etsy Shop will be closed while I’m away. I’ll be putting all my items on hold so there aren’t any misunderstandings and lingering sales.  But as I mentioned a few days ago, I’ll be free from working when I get back, which means I should have *lots* of time for spinning and dyeing.  Speaking of etsy sales, I want to share this photo that Marion left in my feedback. She bought the Surf and Turf, which was two separate colorways that she plied together. It is so beautiful! Thank you for sharing that Marion.  Also, Silja bought some roving quite early on and has posted pictures of it here. Thanks for posting!  It’s very exciting to see what people are doing with my fibers. I get such a thrill.

Hmm.. was there anything else I wanted to say? I suppose not! Anyway, I’ll leave you with a few old (and not so great) photos from Pennsic 35. We have none from 36, last year, because it was the year from hell. Endless bad weather, dreadful land negotiations, RVs, migraine, BROKEN LEG… the camp was a mess and there were no good photo opportunities, not to mention no one cared much. So, here’s to a good year!
