Well, I am ashamed to say that it has been way to long since I have written on my BLOG. I was reminded of that today when I received a phone call from Claudia in FL. So. I decided that I would write a bit today about what I will be doing in the next few weeks and they try to catch up on what I have been doing over the last few months.
First, I have recently joined the Palmetto Fiber Arts Guild in the Charleston SC Metro area. I am very excited that I will soon be learning to spin and I hope to have a spinning wheel of my own by the summer. I will have to chance to attend a Spinning class at Middleton Place Plantation on April 26-27th. Actually, I will be selling wool and yarn at the Sheep Festival they are holding there, but they agreed to put me in the area by the spinners since I want to learn to spin. And, I might even get spin while I am there if it is not too busy. There will be lots going on at the Festival including sheep shearing, dyeing, spinning and weaving demos and lots of food and hospitality. So, if you are in the area, you might want to check it out.
Second, I will be teaching a class at Margiotta's for people with Babylock Embellishers. I'll be posting another message with a sample of the project. The class will be on April 30th. Let me know if you would like to attend.
Third, expect to see some new photos in my blog of some of the projects that I have been working on lately. I will try to add some detail about how I made them, but no promises about that right away. For now, just think of them as "eye candy" as Claudia said to me.
That's all for right now. More to come....soon.

BUYER BEWARE: Do NOT purchase from this “business owner!” Check out her company’s rating of “F” at the South Carolina Better Business Bureau and click the links for documentation of her dishonesty and theft:

Her first complaint was resolved – apparently at SOME point in time she believed in doing the right thing. But the complaint at issue today is the second one, marked “BBB did not receive a response from business.” In November 2013, she accepted $70 from a customer on PayPal and as of today (4/27/14) has NOT sent the merchandise OR provided a refund.
By clicking ‘Read complaint details,’ you can see customer’s repeated and polite attempts to contact business owner, however Denise (business owner) did not respond for MONTHS. She also ignored the Better Business Bureau’s attempts to make this right. After months of ignoring the customer, she finally called TODAY, screaming that she would only refund the money IF all negative Facebook reviews were removed. So she STILL refuses to return the money she unlawfully kept because she dislikes that the truth about her business practices is finally being revealed to others.
Keep your money and avoid the hassle (and theft!) that comes with doing business with Try Our Designs!
STILL waiting, by the way, for her to refund the money she accepted (LAST YEAR) for products she never sent. It would be really nice to see her do the right thing…
(FYI, in case you’re wondering why you can’t give her a Facebook rating anymore, she took the feature down today to hide her one star reviews.)
She got me for about $50.00. Was so,excited when I found the web site. Now it has been over three weeks and still no merchandise. Makes me sad . I work hard for my money just to lose it to a thief.
