Pictures and Update!
Hi Everyone!
As I was looking through photos today, I thought that my sponsors and project followers would like to know who is behind this project. These photos were taken this past Summer and Fall.
Update for Master Spinners- I am working right now on submitting my proposal of the level six idea. I will keep everyone posted.
I hope everyone is safe and warm (as I know some areas have been getting a lot of snow)! Keep in touch, as I would love to hear about your latest projects! :)

New Bunnies Due....
Our family's rabbity is looking forward to bunnies being born! We bred three does (females) which are due in about a week. It has been a while since we last had bunnies, and I am looking forward to it (all except for the late night barn checks).
MASTER SPINNERS UPDATE:
I will most likely will be working on the Master Spinners program towards the end of the month, since I will be working on taxes (for the family business) and updating farm and studio websites and blogs.
The picture above is from our 2007 Shearing Day. Who would not want one of these dolls?
HAPPY NEW YEAR!

Christmas & The New Year
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
I can't begin to thank all of you for your help with supplies and moral support this past year. This past year has really gone by SO fast (can it really be 2011?), and we are starting a new year already!
I am currently finishing level five and will be starting level six (I am almost done!). Level five had more sample skeins and dying methods to complete. I just need to finish some designer yarn skeins and tpi ("twist per inch") skeins (which is my least favorite to complete). Level six has not been written up for distance study yet, so they are working on that right now. The level mainly consists of an in-depth study of choice. I chose the topic "Uses for Angora" (which still needs to approved), as I wanted to come up with final projects breeders of Angora rabbits can use. We have been raising Angoras for the past 10 years and have found that the Felting grade has been wasted (either sold for $1/oz or thrown). The saying "You have to use every inch or there is no profit" is true, that is why I want to come up with projects using every inch!
Email any ideas you might have to the following email address ewer2cute@hotmail.com to be included in this final project. Below is a list of ideas I came up with already:
Flies for Fly Fishing
Felted Boot Liners
Designer Yarn (with little dyed bits)
Christmas Bulbs (use brightly dyed angora to stuff bulbs)
Felted Purse (knitted and then felted)
Thanks for all you do! HAPPY NEW YEAR!
