Last Saturday I spent a Creative Excursion day with my two Fiber Friends enjoying wool in about every form that wool can come in...
...at the annual Maryland Sheep & Wool Festival. The weather was perfect for a day at the fair grounds...
...Amazing colors were everywhere. This is from
Mohair in Motion ~
I think Mary bought some of this for spinning :)
...Beautiful baskets from Friends in Reed from Howard County Maryland :)
...Barns full of wool!
We even took a little sit-down break and made these sweet wool pincushions to stick into a spool of thread at the
Maryland Make It With Wool booth.
(That's Mary's, mine, and Starlyn's)
...Of course there was carnival food ~ and yes, the sky was that blue all day :)
...and a little Bluegrass here and there :)
...and did I mention the sheep?
...and Sheep Dog demonstrations!
...And at the end of the day, we were all a little pooped ~ but we had a blast :)
...Of course I came home with some goodies...
...And I've already put some of them to use :)
If you're anywhere near Central Maryland the first weekend of May next year, take a day and experience the
Maryland Sheep & Wool Festival!
Enjoy the day!

It was a perfect day for it. I had other plans or would have been tempted. Looks like you had a lot of fun.
