Who doesn’t love a fiber festival? \u00a0I look forward to the NY State Sheep and Wool Festival in Rhinebeck each October….and the Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival each May! \u00a0Three years ago a group of \u00a0fiber loving women decided to try a small festival in Ridgewood, NJ, and it’s it’s been a success!<\/h3>\n

There were vendors with great stuff for sale; demonstrations by local guilds that include spinning, weaving, lace making, quilting, embroidery; and classes in knitting, crochet, rug hooking, felting, and natural dyeing. \u00a0In hindsight, \u00a0I wish I’d signed up for the workshop on rug hooking. \u00a0The design for this class was a small sheep, and the beautifully dyed, lightly fulled, wool fabric was lovely<\/em>. \u00a0The little sheep was adorable! \u00a0Although I couldn’t take the workshop (because I was too busy demonstrating for my weaving guild) I am ordering the kit from Foxview Needlepoing and Rug Hooking<\/a>,and hope to figure it out on my own! This is another design that tempted me (well, the sheep anyway!).<\/p>\n

It was great to spend the weekend with other local people who love the things I love!<\/p>\n
