Yesterday two long-time fiber friends from the La Crosse area, Joyce and Gladys, stopped by to pick up a few tidbits and visit. As they were leaving I walked with them outside. I looked up and saw my first robins of the season flying overhead. They perched themselves overhead in a tree and allowed me the opportunity for a photo.
A trip down to the barn to feed the creatures introduced me to a few more robins. Again, I took the opportunity to capture the moment and snap a photo of this bird perched on the barren branches with the bright blue sky in the background.
While I had my camera in hand, I snapped a shot of my favorite feline companion to introduce her to you! I saved her life when she was a kitten and we’ve been best buddies ever since!
Today brought Brenda and Kathy from Minnesota for a visit. I met Brenda in a class I taught at Sievers School of Fiber Arts. She fell in love with dyeing and has been creating a colorful storm since then. Brenda and Kathy have teamed up to start their business in dyed fibers, rovings, felting, and knitting patterns and kits. Brenda’s mittens are a true treasure! Jim and Marilyn stopped by later to talk weaving. We have a wonderful fiber community here and once again this weekend I was reminded of that!
