Redeeming Acres: 2014-10-05
http://redeemingacres.blogspot.com/2014_10_05_archive.html
Tuesday, October 7, 2014. Ewefluffyewe had a great weekend, for which we're thankful. We sold out of pumpkin hats. We never seem to have enough of those. Mama took over the spinning for me on Sunday. I just couldn't sit still much longer. Papa loved helping fetch good food for all the vendors. Keeping everyone happy with full bellies helps when you're away from home. There was fluff, music, yum-yums, peeps, and well everything a girl could want, but it's still nice to be home. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Redeeming Acres: Saving Birds & Shawl Knitting
http://redeemingacres.blogspot.com/2014/10/saving-birds-shawl-knitting.html
Monday, October 20, 2014. Saving Birds and Shawl Knitting. It's always something new around here. Chaos was trying to eat this little one through the tayberry netting in the garden. Poor little dove had wandered into a seeming paradise, discovered it was berry-less and realized he was trapped. I've never held a dove before. His poor heart was all a flutter, and I'm sure that he was terrified of us, 'unwinged'-large-bird-eating-monsters that we are. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Thursday, November 13, 2014. Zach and I have been trying to take advantage of the last warm and sunny days. He's a good buddy for walking up to the mailbox with me. I can usually bring my camera along and get some pretty pictures while we sweetly saunter. Aunt Ruth had a birthday this month. We were so glad to celebrate with her. Don't they know that this is, of all seasons, a time to be grateful? I found a little traveler on Aliyah. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Simple template. Powered by Blogger.

Randi's Spinning Corner: March 2011
http://randisspinningcorner.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 17, 2011. It seems like spring is the time for baby's. I have a couple people I know that are expecting little ones and I thought it would be nice to make the baby's toys that they could use when they were little and when they got a little older. I had recently ordered a book from knit picks called Itty Bitty Toys. Here are some pictures of the finished frog and turtle. These toys were a breeze to knit up and the book has detailed instructions if you are a beginning knitter. I was given s...

On the inspiration board in my studio. One day I took the little loom with me out to the campfire with. How imperfectly perfect it is.

Sunday, June 28, 2015. Little Wren, Big City. Yesterday I had the honor of teaching a companion class at the. David L. Lawrence Convention Center. In Pittsburgh during the. American Association of Woodturners. The companion classes were hosted by the lovely. Society for Contemporary Craft. For folks who were attending. The convention that were 'non-turners' of wood. I ended up taking the long way around to the craft room. And stumbled on some beautiful roof top green spaces. With my 'Found Object Kits'.
