Old Fashion Towels

I love making these old fashion, 100% cotton dish towels.  They look like the ones "grandma" used way back when.  They come in a variety of colors:  red, blue, green, yellow & black.

Winter is here!

I had a wonderful Thanksgiving with my family -- all my kids were home! 

I drove Richard to Detroit Metro Airport yesterday and ran into my first snow storm on the way home just past Saginaw.  Not fun.  I left the Flint area around 3 p.m. and arrived in Cedarville at 10 p.m.  I did stop and pick up some groceries, but 6 hours to get home was awful (1 hour of shopping if you are doing the math).

Woolderness will be open weekends from now until Christmas.  I would call first if you are coming from a distance -- things do come up and I have to close.

I will be having demonstrations on weaving, spinning, rag rugs, needle felting and locker hooking during the "Inside the Artist's Studio...A Christmas Open House."  You will have the opportunity to try all of them, if you wish!  The event goes from 12 noon to 6 p.m. on December 14.  Eight studios are participating.  Postcards and maps are available around town -- Cedarville Foods, Les Cheneaux Community Library, the Chamber and Woolderness!  Hope to see you there!
