At the guild we always have show and tell. I showed off my red lace up opera gloves. I was asked to model them for our 2008 calender. Every month we have to bring in a different color yarn or project that we have made with that color. May's theme color is purple. I brought in a purple skein that I had spun up for the picture. The photographer asked if I would show off my red gloves so that she can added it in as a side pict for another month. Cool! I have put skeins in for March and now May. It's cool that our hard work will be displayed in a calender. I'm excited about this. One lady yesterday showed off a COAT! She spun lilac color yarn and then wove a whole winter coat, lined, with pockets and everything! I wish I was that cool! My sock friend and I signed up to work at the fiber festival that our guild puts on in September. That should be fun. We will work a two hour shift and then we can shop for the rest of the day! We chose a post that we could sit and just give information while we sit and spin. I'm so excited about the festival. I've been to it the past two years on my own and now I get to be a part of it! Love it!
Yesterday after the guild meeting before Hubby and I went out I continued my war on weeds in my lawn. Last week I went nuts with weed killer so that my lawn looks like a lawn and not a dandelion patch. I'm slowly taking over one side of the yard! However, my neighbor sees no problem with weeds. This is the frost year that I've cared about my garden or my lawn. It's hard work! I ran out of weed killer, so today I have to make a trip out to get more. After that war was waged, I went out back and cut a few fresh lilacs for the house. They smell so good! ^_^
