Spring has finally sprung around here. I sincerely hope that I will not see another snowflake until at least October! It's supposed to be quite warm this weekend, up around 80F. The day the leaves all come out on the trees is always amazing to me. One day, trees are all bare branches and the next they're covered in fresh green leaves. Maybe that will happen this weekend.
Yesterday, I visited a friend of mine. Her guard llama kept an eye on me while I fed this little guy. His name is Homer. I'd never fed a lamb before. He went right to it and very efficiently emptied his bottle. Every time I think of his little tail wiggling at the speed of light, I have to smile.
Here are some of his pasture mates. Linda's sheep are all Shetlands and she is a very good shepherd. The wool from them is just a delight to spin!
The pillows that were started the other day are finished. Cutting my first real project off my own loom was pretty cool. They are a bit smaller than I thought they would be; I still need to work on my planning skills for weaving projects.
There is an antique show this weekend, so I'm hoping that at least some of them will go home with someone else and some green will come home in my pocket!
Note: Very slow at the antique show, but all of these attractive pillows are available on my brand new Etsy shop...link is on the left.
