We finally made it to Randy’s Mom’s for Christmas. It was not quite the same but we have an really enjoyable visit, even if it was halfway thought January! We met Katie, who waits here for me to toss her monkey so she can chase it. We didn’t do any big events, other than watch [...]

Christmas morning and it’s snowing again. Just in case it wasn’t already white enough? Around 8″ and still falling heavily. Okay, Santa! Enough is enough already! lol Hope you are warm and cozy where ever you are!
Had our first snow and the second one is on the way. Maybe. Yesterday it was three feet by Friday, today it’s 10″ and it might actually be rain. By tomorrow it’ll probably be Indian summer! lol Well, the weather folk keep telling us that forecasting is better than it used to be but still [...]

Our promised rain… well, they said 60% chance…. turned out to be 40% that it wouldn’t. Not a drop. Very disappointing as we really do need it and our rain is very late this year. This storm all went north of us it looks like, tho we did have our first little fire last evening. [...]
Some interesting yarn
Posted in Dolls, Looms, Traveling, Uncategorized, Weaving on Sep 28th, 2012
Susanne from Benny fibers in Montana gave me this skein of yarn at OFFF and I wanted to thank her so wove a little pouch using the 4×6 Mutli and noticed that this color-way wove up into a really nice Scottish looking plaid so decided to make up a school suit for my AG doll. [...]

We had a great time at the Oregon Flock and Fiber Festival this year. The weather behaved and was just perfect, sunny and warm but not too hot. Lots of people came to enjoy the activities. We met and made new weavers and met a lot of weavers from years past. It was a very [...]
