April 3 - 6, Tucson, Arizona will be busy with Fiber. Throughout the city Fiber Artists will be gathering to get the most out of Fibers Through Time. I am showing at this conference in the Vendor Room.
I am gearing up for the Arizona Federation Fibers Through Time 2008, Connections With The Past. During the show I will be demonstrating the Roberta Electronic Spinning Wheel. It is always fun to show what Roberta can do.
Show and conference will be in the Holiday Inn Palo Verde, 4550 S. Palo Verde Boulevard in Tucson, and it is sponsored by Arizona Federation of Weavers & Spinners Guilds, Inc.
The Conference committee plans on bringing a celebration of our Connections with the Past by sharing old traditions including historic patterns in the center pieces and scarves while learning more about the history of fibers grown in our area. The keynote speaker is Dr. Glenna Dean sharing with us about the Archeology of Cotton.
Come and see my Raggedy Ro Batts. You can spin your own Raggedy Ro and stretch the batt by using a base color.
My booth will be full of Treasure Tail Yarn for Adornment or to create a designer scarf. 17 strands of Hand Spun Yarns, Soy, Bamboo and Raggedy Ro makes a designer piece.This month is a busy one.
