Middle Tennessee Fiber Fest. May 24-25, 2013: http://www.tnfiberfestival.com/
Do you know of any fiber festivals etc. in northern Arizona?
My new home state Connecticut has a sheep and wool festival on April 28, 2012: http://www.ctsheep.com/sheep_and_wool_festival
i’m surprised that the Rhinebeck sheep and wool festival of New York is not listed. I was told this is one of the largest in the New England area. i went in 2012 for the first time and it was amazing. please add to the list. there is also one in New Jersey each year. thanks
Could I request the addition of two workshops with fantastic International felt artists and wonderful friends, Nicola Brown of Ireland on May 25 & 26 (Fantastic Felt Inspired by the Natural and Built Environment) and about and Charity Van der Meer of the Netherlands on July 10, 11 & 12 (where we will be making felt coats…so excited!!!), both to be held right here in West Michigan. A link to my web page with information can be found at:
