ECF…

…the one with all the ramshackle.

Old Tractor

After Clermont on Saturday, R and I drove around a little bit.  During the drive we saw that tractor up there – I had him turn around and go back so I could take a photo. (and, since he is the best husband ever, he didn’t complain even though it took me five minutes to get the shot I wanted!)

Have a great weekend!  I’ll be sewing – getting bags prepped to be in the Spunky Eclectic booth at Massachusetts Sheep & Wool next weekend!

 



Clermont 2011 – Times Two

First, let me say thank you to everyone who left comments and emailed regarding Beanie.  Every one of them helped and mean a lot to both of us.  We are doing …better.  Jazz still has a lost look in her eyes but she’s getting lots of pets and smooches to help her feel lots of love.

Now, onward :o)

This year, I again sold my bags at the Clermont Festival.  The first show on April 23rd was a rainy mess but we had a good turnout and I sold a bunch of bags.  I didn’t get a chance to take a lot of photos that day but here is one that sums it up nicely:

Clermont 1.0 - to sum up

This past weekend they had a ‘Market Day’ which was a freebie do-over for those of use who froze and got covered in mud during Clermont 1.0 – turnout wasn’t anything to write home about but we did okay and it was nice to be a little more relaxed.

Clermont 2.0 - also wet, muddy & cold

Hopefully next year the weather will cooperate since this is a wonderful little show on beautiful grounds!  Heck, hopefully it will cooperate for Cummington, wet sheep smell terrible.



CPW’s! Unite!

This past Saturday, I attended a spinning event in Athens, NY that was hosted by my friend, Tina.  It was mainly for owners of Canadian Production Wheels but everyone was welcome.

(Tina and Jesh pictured above) We even had a less-than-48-hour owner of a new (to her) CPW!  Jess (on the right in the photo below – Yrallee is on the left) found her new toy just a day or so before our meetup!

I think we ignited some CPW lust in the hearts of the few who attended CPW-less ;o)

It was wonderful to see them grouped together
