Coccineal after a bit of time

spindling

Backstrap weaving with natural colors

but I just wanted to share a few pictures before I head upstairs to take a nap…there will be plenty more posts about the journey in the days to come…

This weekend will be devoted to updating the Fiber College website with all of the Classes for 2009…thanks for your patience!
