She had a tiny shop on our farm property where she sold wool from our sheep, spinning wheels, and looms. She also taught classes. I would sit out there with her and watch her spin for hours. It's so relaxing to watch. I had her come in for all my school show and tells and eventually my science projects. Always scored A's! Those colors are so vibrant. I will show mom this post. She will be pleased to see the younger generation carrying on this tradition!Mutha Maehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18071091659191752451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33731975.post-90599150780027809772008-08-27T08:13:00.000-04:002008-08-27T08:13:00.000-04:00Koolaid?
