Hello

Talk about random posting, I debate sometimes whether to just abandon this altogether. Maybe I will, maybe I won’t. I haven’t added a part 2 to the pink and orange quilt because I put that quilt on hold.

Here’s a picture of the pretty yarn and pincushion I bought at the Iowa Sheep and Wool Festival last weekend. The yarn is from Cormo sheep. I don’t know sheep breeds, but this one is particularly soft. The little butterfly on the needle felted pincushion was needle tatted by a woman who had a whole bag of them, was going to teach a class on how to make them and she gave them away. I will probably knit a narrow scarf with the yarn.
