Looking forward!!

I am looking forward to the New Year. 

I have been very sick these last couple weeks and just have not gotten the work done in the mill that I had promised myself that I would.   Oh well I guess that is just part of the life cycle.

I still have a couple of fairly good sized orders to complete and then I am going to get busy on my own rovings.  I have been promising myself (and others) that I will get some alpaca/silk rovings done and also some alpaca/bamboo and alpaca/seacell.   I am very determined to do this in January. 

LOL  Does it sound like a pep talk to myself??  Well it may be.

I have actually had some time to sit at the loom in the house because of being under the weather and the other day made a nice simple scarf from a darker camel coloured 100% alpaca that I had spun.
I am looking forward to getting it washed and blocked. 

I have many big plans for the new year.  This is the time of year where we do not go out and do any shows.

Our first show for the 2011 season will be the Didsbury trade show in the early spring.  Then we have a couple weeks off and then we are off to the Strathmore Mother's Day Market. 

I am also going to try and get myself to keep the blog and the website more up to date this next year then I have in the past.  I am terrible for not keeping things current.  LOL  Oh well, for those that know me, they would expect nothing else.

Well everyone,  have a HAPPY NEW YEAR and may you all have a blessed and prosperous 2011
