The Fold in Marengo, IL is having their annual Memorial Day sale. So, I decided to go early (like many others did) and restock some colors after Easter and Fiona's class. They have a clearance in the garage which was 50% off of most everything except equipment, but their roving and everything else inside was still 20% off. So, I indulged. Here are my goodies -- You can't see in the upper left hand corner there is a bag of Merino roving which is actually what I call batting in strip form. Everything is merino except the brown in the middle is brown corriedale and the package in plastic on the left is silk noil.

Thanks Lyn. It is,isn't it! I have to confess I also ordered from Dreamspin and got some beautiful colors there, too! Now I'd better get felting! :-)

Did you save any for me? I might take a drive out there on Monday, unless I decide to felt!

Zed, that's why I had to reorder from Dreamspin and restock at the Fold, when I find a color I really like I don't want to chance running out. :-) Halay, I don't have anything specific in mind. I tend to stick to certain color ways and don't like to run out. But I have about two dozen projects I've been wanting to get to. Cathy, I have more than enough. I hope you get a chance to go. It's like fiber heaven in the farmland!

Sorry to have missed the Memorial Day Sale, but too many felt projects pulling me to stay home! I will definitely visit The Fold booth at the MW Fiber Fair in early August!

You probably saved yourself a lot of money. :-)
