Anywhere near Bowling Green, KY? Come to a Ravelry meet up!
So you all know that I am vending at a Quilt Festival on Nov 4 & 5 right? Well I was just told to day that it may be a bit slow on Friday and that there will be plenty of space. My thoughts are to turn the quilt show into an impromptu Ravelry meet up! So if you are anywhere near Bowling Green, KY I hope you will consider grabbing a chair and coming to hang out. I think it would be amazing to have people come to the quilt show to see a bunch of us knitting, spinning or what ever craft you want to do hanging out in the vending hall! The Quilt show is at the WKU Museum from 9:30-3:30 Central time. If you need any directions or have any questions let me know. For all who show up even to just hang out for a bit I will be entering all you your names for a drawing for something of your choice from my shop. If you are not nearby but know of someone who is that may enjoy hanging out please forward this along! I hope to see you all there! I will have my drum carder and drop spindle!
Nov 4 & 5 I will be at WKU in Bowling Green, KY vending at the Quilt Show
This weekend, Nov 4th & 5th I will be at WKU in the Garden Gallery of the Museum vending and doing a presentation. The WKU Museum is located at 1444 Kentucky St, Bowling Green, KY 42101. I will be vending from 9:30am-3:30pm both Friday and Saturday. My presentation will be Friday Nov 4th, at my booth from 10:30-11:30am. It is called "Turning Inspiration into Color" and I will have examples of inspirations and how I translate them into my colorways in Batts, Combed Top, Roving, and Yarn. I had wanted to do fabric as well since it is a quilt show but I ran out of time. Can you believe that what with my amazing time management skills? I can here the laughs now!
This is an early show so come on down and visit then have your night free to do something fun! Also if you are anywhere near Bowling Green or if you know someone who is I would love to see you at the show! Friendly faces are always welcome. I am hoping that people might bring a chair and sit and knit or spin awhile too! I am also bringing my drum carder to the show and I will have my new "Batt in a Bag". These are for anyone who has a carder and wants to make a cool batt with out having to buy pounds of stuff to get the few colors they want. They are also great for felters or even those who like to knit with roving. I will start having these in the shop after the festival this weekend. Batt in a Bag will have any of the following: Roving, Firestar, Angelina, Silk, Silk Noil, Tencel Neps, Bamboo, Locks, etc.. All bags will have 4oz of mixed fiber. I am happy to assist you in layering the roving so that when you get home all you have to do is fluff it out and card it up!
I wanted to also mention that I have had a great time at my first 2 festivals. I was at the Southern Indiana Fiber Arts Festival and met some lovely people! I gave one of my SW Sock Yarns in the colorway "Ariel Wears a Ball Gown" away as a door prize. I look forward to going again next year! I was also at Fiber in the Boro just this past weekend. It was a really great experience and I got to see some friends and meet some people from online! I hope to see everyone again next year! Maybe after the festival we can all plan to go out and eat and talk!
