Trunk Show!

We have a fun and fabulous day planned at Mosaic Yarn Shop in Roanoke this Saturday, July 12th, from 10-5 pm! Natasha from Unplanned Peacock  is bringing a fantastic selection of yarn and will be setting up in the parking lot.  I will have samples of all of my designs available for you to try on and the patterns to go with them.  If you are in the area, I would love to meet you and answer any questions that you may have and also help you select a pattern and yarn to go with it. There are going to be some great door prizes too! Natasha has a BAG of spinning fiber to give away!  Just bring the skeins that you have been spinning for Tour de Fleece to show off and Natasha will enter you in the drawing.   Gina is providing cupcakes, champagne and lot's of goodies to snack on too.

Once you’ve been inspired and adopted some lovelies, head on to Blacksburg to the New River Fiber Company to see the Kismet Fiber Works trunk show from 4-8pm!

I have a brand new design, Juliet, that is being released on July 14th in River's Edge Fiber Arts new Seasons self striping DK yarn.  I will have a limited number of hard copy patterns available on Saturday so be sure to come early if you would like one!  I'm going to be blogging early next week with all the details on Juliet.  In the mean time, here is a sneak peek for you.




Only 17 more days until the puppy comes home, not that I am keeping track or anything!  We still haven't settled on a name and are working diligently on this.  Andy and I spent the weekend going to the pet stores in town and picking up supplies.  We may have gone a wee bit overboard and even wound up with a puppy pool.  I have missed Roper so much over the last year and I am really looking forward to having a new friend in the house.
