Lambtown

Another post by Robin. I don't have time to straighten out WP right now. I think Rusty needs his own e-mail address to fix this problem. Lambtown was Saturday. What an incredibly busy day! There is no way that I could have made it through the day without the help of friends. The event was packed. Here is my booth before the doors opened.

I had the booth pretty well set up the night before when I was asked to move it 18" to the north because the neighboring booth wasn't given the allotted space. Can you imagine? I was not happy, but after dealing with it, I didn't feel so guilty about spilling over into the empty space next to me. Next year I think I'll get two booth spaces, but I'll definitely need a full-time person to help. Friends, Aaron and Alison and Jackie helped with the booth and we even pulled in a few other friends who happened to be walking by.

I taught a rigid heddle class in the morning and had five students. We crammed as many new techniques into that class as we could in 2 hours. Everyone wove a sampler with Italian hemstitching, Danish medallions, and warp and weft pick-up.

There was also a sheep show. Tina helped in the show ring and Dona and Rick spend most of their day monitoring the timing of the show. I thought that we might be showing in the morning, but there were enough sheep entered that we didn't show until later in the afternoon. This is the yearling ewe class. That is Meridian Vicki in second place. She was Reserve Champion ewe in the Primitive Breeds division.

Tina brought her service puppy in training to Lambtown. Isn't Golly cute?

Thanks to Dona for the last 2 photos.
