| I've just added a new collection of 14 colorful merino and exotic blend spinning or felting fibers to my Fibers page! I've also renamed my Services page to my Info page where you will find all pertinent information including my Bio, Contact, Shipping, Ordering, Auctions, and more! Now my Home page should load a bit faster. |
| Mountain Colors' 13 new patterns are here! I'm still working on all of their new color samples, MOCO's Qiviut yarn and fibers, plus an assortment of exceptional new spinning and felting fibers. Coming very soon... |
| Look for 13 new patterns from Mountain Colors, 10 new Hand Painted Solitary Colors, and 5 new Hand Painted Colorways in August. I'll also be adding MOCO Qiviut Yarns and Fibers in August! |

| I recently upgraded to Front Page 2000 so I am going through a complete makeover, while trying to maintain the older version at the same time. It seems that I just can't leave the theme graphics alone and keep twiddling with them and just about everything else including the whole web's layout. Feedback is always appreciated so email me your thoughts! |
