Space baby

Packing up a new space baby quilt for a friend who just had her first-- a wee little boy :)


And just in time-- I found out yesterday that another friend is expecting in May! In the meantime, I have a little work to do for yet another friend due in December. The sewing machine is going to be humming....

Fall Fiber Festival

We went to the Montpelier Fall Fiber Festival and had a great time-- lots of animals to check out, lots of great yarn and fleece and spinning wheels that I was deeply coveting, sheep dog trials, and sweet potato fries-- what more could you want?


So many beautiful colors...


Lots of animals to look at...

Including these angora goats, which were the cutest thing ever...


And there was no escaping without adding to the stash. One of the vendors what someone whose work I'd seen (and purchased) at the Finger Lakes Fiber Arts Festival five or six years ago, and the stuff is just gorgeous. So a little mohair came home with us.
