Last Day--But STill Fun...............................

What is this?? The table is loaded with gift bags.
Participants are asked to bring at least one door prize to share--
each person usually brings more.  Each day everyone
receives at least one door prize--it's one of the fun
things of the event!

This is the head table with my partner in crime 
calling numbers for the door prizes

One of the show and tell features was this hand dyeing
project "What I did last summer?"
She used only handspun wool and natural dyes--
well documented!

Here is the list of her natural dyes--what a
focused campaign I must say!

This was left on my chair at the head table!

My mascot for the event--Green is
his theme for sure!

I took some time to walk around the room to 
see what was going on--spinner skeining her
finished plying

And yummy yarn in a basket waiting to be spun

hand spun wool--knitted into a scarf

the looks of a finished scarf on the back of a chair

One participant even brought their walking wheel

And we have little spindles too

It is always interesting to see the wheels
that participants bring





And one lazy spinner!  Oh, but this electric spinner 
is good for those who have feet troubles and 
"look ma!  no plug ins needed!"
another good day spent with spinning friends!

Beginnings of New Year Ideas

I'm already thinking about the new year and new beginnings--2024 was a lost year as far as new quilt starts--there was not a one began. ...
