I just love this event. If you have not been to Kathy's ranch it is a real treat. Since it is spring there are sure to be an awful lot of cute babies around. There will be fibre artists who will have very lovely yarn and fibre that you can spin for yourself. Be sure to save some money for Kathy's hand spun lovely yarn, fibre ready for spinning. Kathy also has some Unique one of a kind items in her shop. Did I mention that she is also a weaver, felter, knitter, critter mama and care taker and all around wonder woman. I really admire Kathy and urge you to come and see all the lovelies if you can.
The Tucson Spring Shearing Festival will be the Saturday, March 27, 2010, from 9-3. Danny Smith will be here from Missouri to shear the alpacas, llamas, angora goats, and sheep. Vendors and demonstrators will be here to share their fiber art with you. This is also baby season, so there will be lambs and maybe kids to see and pet. If you are reading my blog, you will see that I have already been posting baby photos. Four more lambs more have been born since the last posting.
A nuno felted scarf will be raffled with the proceeds going to the Casa Maria kitchen.
Upcoming events: The 4th Avenue Street Fair is March 19-21, 2010, so the shop will be closed. I will be in booth number 331 - the southwest side near where I have been the last few times.
The Tucson Wool Festival (Fall shearing here at the ranch) will be November 6, 2010.
I have started an eshop where I am listing some of my nicest yarns. I still have my etsy shop.
