It’s been a roller coaster ride again as usual. I have been dyeing and blending and spinning lots of fibres and oh wait til you see what is in store tonight  !!!  The teaser label for the March club has been released but just in case you haven’t seen it yet, here it is:  I just love this painting from  1559 which apparently has about 140plus proverbs hidden in it.
