I live on a small farm in the catskills where I get to raise goats, chickens, ducks, turkeys a horse, donkey and a cow....they all bring me great joy. I wake to the rooster...tell him to be quiet as I have another hour....and as dawn becomes morning, I wander out to the barn to feed and milk! There is no better way to begin each day!
After morning chores, I get to descend to my studio and set up for the days workshop. It makes me smile to be in my studio....all I can think is how lucky am I to be able to love what I do! Teaching Fiber Arts to others is just icing on the cake!
I harbor a small store to allow you to linger over locally handmade items all made in my studio. Touch my handspun yarns and don't be alarmed if you need to have it! It is a common occurance that takes place. Knitting with handspun is a treat. It may make you want to learn to spin....we can help with that also. Spinning fibers are back in stock and fleece is being dyed. I card up 8-10 groupings at a time and then begin spinning. Such pleasure!
Woven Items
I spend a lot of time weaving...being inspired always to do more by your requests for colors and more choices. I don't classify my work. A handtowel to me may be a dresser scarf or a placemat to you. I just weave them and let you choose the purpose.Now to find enough time to create all the new ideas I have... Is sleep necessary is the question!
