A big thank you to Joyce Taylor for hosting last nights spinning gather at her house in Fremont. Wow, is she a wonderful artist. What beautiful toll paintings she has created. Joyce also introduced us to her neighbor, Susan, a new for the first time last night, spinner. Way to go Joyce and Susan.
Word has leaked out that we will have another very young spinner joining us soon. Congratulations Sarah!
