And additional note, I’ll be at this Saturday 7/6 from 9-1. I’m excited to be popping up! Happy wooly Wednesday!

Throwback Thursday 2023. Just last year but I love this picture. I feel like it just screams summer in New England.

This is a big sheep for me. Probably like 10”+ long and like 8” high. Love this sculpture. Using locks I got from and I washed them myself! Very proud. Ashford Heights Farms told me what to do and it worked great. I love this sculpture and it aligns with my goal of using local materials to make my work. We are flush with awesome animal fiber farms in MA, CT, RI, NH and ME. It’s so great to get connected and work with local farms. If you are interested in local animal fibers and people that work with them to produce art, clothing, yarn, etc. check out and the work they are doing to connect us all! I will be selling this on Saturday

Thanks Southeastern New England Fibershed for spotlighting us.
