I got a lovely Etsy message yesterday afternoon from SplitRockRanch who included me in a lovely treasury full of mostly fibery goodies, with a bit of photography, beadwork and soap thrown in for good measure. It's all in the colors of the sunset - red, pink, orange, purple black - really remarkable work by all the artists. I am thrilled to be in such fine company! My roving that is shown here is my PhatFiber contribution, Fire. I love this colorway to make and to spin. Like much hand dyed fiber, as close as your recipes and processes can be, the work is always a surprise. With this color combination, it it a pleasant surprise as well.
Here is the link to the treasury - see what trips your fancy. But don't wait too long. Treasuries are rather fleeting. Thanks, SplitRock. Love your batts!
I finally spun a batt or 4 myself last evening. With my house under renovation, I kind of lost my spinning space to - well, everything. Boxes of books, an extra sofa in the studio, furniture mashed together and covered in old sheets, plus tools and plaster dust over everything. But last evening I went to my Wednesday spinning group and spun the second half of a teal batt I carded a long while back. It felt great! The house is getting put back together too. And that is a very nice thing.

Thanks so much for blogging about the Treasury! I haven't had a chance to spin up the fibers in this colorway that I got from you awhile back but now I'm inspired to get them out and spin! Glad you got some spinning in yourself. Hope you survive the renovation!
