What's Hot! - UPDATE


UPDATE - See bold item below.

What's hot?  Well definitely the weather - stay cool and don't forget to hydrate!  But really I'm posting a reminder of some hot (or cool) fibre-related events going on that you may want to check out.

First off, this coming weekend (July 6 and 7, 9 to 4 each day) is the Truro Fibre Frolic at the Farm Equipment Museum in Truro.   Check out their Facebook page for more information and a list of vendors.

From Friday, July 13 to Sunday, July 15, at Memory Lane - 1940's Heritage Village Museum, share in the Women's Heritage Celebration with exhibits, workshops by local artists, demonstrations, and old fashioned tea social.  This year's theme is wooly!

On Saturday, July 28, from 10 to 4 PM, is the Cole Harbour Fibre Frolic at the Cole Harbour Heritage Farm Museum.  You can check out the Facebook page for this event for more details.

From August 18 to the 25th, Sisterhood Fibres is also hosting "Woolstock - 8 days of fleece & sisterhood" in conjunction with Tata Fest in Tatamagouche.  Details are still being finalized so check the links and Facebook event pages often for updates.

For more information on other events happening in the area in the near future, check out my April blog post.   And please let me know if I've missed an event.

Also hot (off the press), Susan Guagliumi has a new book out entitled Open Spaces and I absolutely did order a copy as soon as she announced it, and plan to post a review in the near future.  If you have it and have tried, or plan to try, any of the techniques or projects, let us know in the comments!

Also in the comments, let us know what you're working on this summer.  Or what you'd like to learn, do or see.  Or maybe we'll run into each other at one of the events, even better!

Have a wonderful summer,

Nancy
