I'm a Yankee Peddler...

at least this weekend and next weekend!!
The Spinning and Weaving guild that I belong to
"The Algonquin Spinners and Weavers"
have the great pleasure of demonstrating at
This is a great place to meet so many people and 
share what we do - spinning, weaving and everything 
fiber related!
 All of our member who participate in demonstrating have the opportunity to 
offer their items for sale.  I must say, we do put out a nice display 
of product.  Such variety, color and styles.
 You still have one more weekend to get a chance to see this 
Yankee Peddler Festival, Sept. 22nd & 23rd.
 Demonstrations such as triangle loom weaving, spinning on the 
Great Wheel, drop spindle spinning, inkle loom weaving and
an activity for the children.  Making friendship bracelets using
a Kumihimo disk.
 I had to include this awesome carved pumpkin created by
Sue R., a guild member who has many talents, including 
carving pumpkins....who knew!?
Notice his wool felted hands holding a map of "Yankee Peddler".
 Some of Sue's other creations.  Needle felting is so cool!
I say she is talented... she is smug and says, "No, anybody can do it".
I'll stick with talent"
Hmmm, maybe there will be a workshop in her future on needlefelting?
