Who Will Be in Allegan/Michigan Fiber Festival?

Monday, August 15th, 2005

Basketweave RugI’m teaching at Michigan Fiber Festival in Allegan, Michigan… THIS week. This is a wonderful festival, which is regional in its draw. Last year I had folks in my classes from as far as Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, as well as the closer states of Michigan (at least one from the upper peninsula, very far away from Allegan), Ohio, Indiana and Illinois. How fun is that?

I am teaching a full-day class on Wednesday, making handles for fiber tools with polymer clay. I also will be teaching a half-day afternoon class on Thursday, Knitted Colorful Footies Toe Up, and another half-day afternoon on Friday, Knitted Basketweave Rug (see photo).

I will not be available for much of Saturday, but will be back in circulation on Sunday. Anyone want to gather together sometime? Sunday is perfect for me since I’m without a class all day. Thursday and Friday mornings might work, or Wed/Thurs/Fri dinnertime would also be great. It seems dinnertime should be time to gather together, and instead the place often gets deserted very soon after 5pm. Sigh…

I know my friend Terri is in my Wednesday class, so she and Leslie and I will get together for some dinner some time. Anyone else out there??? I just love get togethers, especially of cyber-friends!!!

I’m not sure if I’ll be able to check email starting about dinnertime Tuesday through Sunday night. I’ll try to check at the Allegan Library, but there are no guarantees. Send an email anyway, if you read this late, but I can’t be sure what I’ll do.

How is this: We can meet on Sunday just after 12 noon, at the little fountain/pond with a foot bridge, behind the building where we check in. (It’s just before a large tree to the right of the paved area where food vendors are, as you walk out the back doors of vendor buildings.)

That time frame means that folks with classes can at least say hello during their lunch hour. Does that work? We can hang out there until 12:15 and then we can move to a comfy spot with a picnic table, or we can go pet yarns in a vendor building, depending on who is there and what they wish to do.

Please, send me email at Lynn AT ColorJoy DOT com if you want to join in… but if you can’t send me email, do not let that keep you from showing up anyway!!!

And if Sunday won’t work for you, write me and we can maybe meet another time. I want to meet as many cyber-friends as possible!
