The Southern Adirondack Fiber Festival went very well this past weekend. I’m pausing to write this before I unpack from the show. I’m pleased with the sales and more pleased with the wonderful people I got to speak with and the praise for my batik and hand painted fabric.
There were so many beautiful exhibits with wools, yarns and other crafts, all with excellent quality. There were also farms with their sheep, alpacas, and llamas. There was music, dog herding, sheep shearing demonstrations, and many fun things for kids. I’m looking forward to next year.
I worked continuously when I got home to finish a few pieces and get them to the festival. Sunday morning I did bring down a piece I’d worked on for six months. See photos of my booth and the batik of sheep spread out over the fields. The name of this one is “Cast Off to the Fields- Sheep”. This is part of the “Cast Off to the Fields” series of which I am working on several other batik. You can see “Cast off to the Fields” on my blog posted July 22, with other related photos on other July posts.
