New Year, New Beginning

Happy New Year! Knitting, Fiber and Love is on my heart and mind.

I will knit more, loose 30 pounds and spend more time with my husband.

Know you are loved is the greatest gift!

I will show my fun stuff more often. Keep coming back for more fun

Back to Knitting after Eye Surgery

I have had a hard time the last couple of weeks. I had cataract surgery and it is not setting well with me. I have bad eyesight and now it has gone wacky with changes. I will push on, so I won't have lots of posts till it gets better.

I have knitted a hat called Dorothys Hat that I tested on Ravelry.

Summer is Wonderful in Michigan

I haven't been posting cause of family matters but
I still take time here and there to do something with
fiber. This is my lovely Lennox spinning wheel made by Ken and BJ Lennox in Grand Rapids, Michigan. They were called Winsome Timber wheels and stopped production in 2006. The wheels are wonderful! Crazy as it seems, I bought this wheel in 2007 from a lady in Vermont. I am so thankful, cause I wanted this wheel so bad but I did not have the extra money to purchase before 2006. I know it was by the grace of God I found this wheel in Oak what I love plus double treadle. I also love the way it spins, heaven on Earth.

This is a sample of what I am working on now, it is red and black wool and a touch of white mohair. I love Bulky weight, so that is what I am spinning now.

I pray I can do some dying in the next couple of days so to have roving ready for winter spinning. I don't do dying of fiber in the winter for health reasons.

Scentsy Display

Last weekend I did a show to benefit Breast Cancer Research at beautiful place where they usually have wedding receptions and big events.

Laura Edwards and here whole crew did a wonderful job.

They sent this photo to me of my display. Those shiny things are the plug in warmers and warmers witht the lights on.

Another Super Hot Day

The weather is to hot! Today will be 90 or over, truly crazy for May, we haven't had this since July. This weekend is a fiber festival not far from here at Farm Girls It is a fun time for all.

I have to do embroidery today, early this morning or late this evening cause we don't have air conditioning

Hot Day in May

Things are going slow since my last posting. My back does not like me. The weather today is near 80 and dry, so in turn I feel a little better. Yes, this blog is about knitting, quilting, spinning and things of fiber. I just hate it when you can't do what you want to do.

Slow Going with Back Problems

I am having an awful time with my back, so bad I have to use a cane. My dear husband says, relax and don't get upset. I am doing that, all I can do is take it easy and lay down. Sorry I can't post anything interesting, please know I will try tomorrow.
