Shepherd's Harvest

Minnesota's Sheep and Wool Festival will be held on Mother's Day weekend.
This it will be May 8 and 9 at Washington Country Fairground.

We will be there as vendors and instructors.
We are teaching two classes; one on Saturday and one on Sunday.
I have just checked the festival website and both classes are already full.

Thank you!!

For those who were going to sign up but found out that it is already full, please contact us and come to our studio in Chaska.

If you have several more than 5 people and a place for us to bring looms, we are offering off-site classes, too.
Please contact us for details.
We are happy to travel in the Twin Cities area.

Anyway, it makes me happy to see that the classes are both full already.
Now, I need to focus on making items for sale.

I will bring something new this year.
We are there to offer you to try weaving at the booth, too.
Make sure you stop by at our booth and say "Hi".

These days.....

As you know, I am good at Japanese language since I grew up in Japan.

I tend to update my Japanese blog a lot, but not this one...
I think about this a lot, but I just don't update.
I need to do that more often. I know that.....

Anyway, these days what I am doing is....

1. I am thinking about scheduling the summer camp. I will do that, so please wait for those who are planning to come.

2. "SAORI Minnesota" meeting.
I have several people who come to the studio to weave. I hear "I want to make garments".
Dan and I will organize a meeting for "exchanging dress making ideas, show and tell, SAORI news from Japan and here in Minnesota and of course, getting to know each other!".

It will be after Lake Minnetonka Art Studio Tour in the first weekend of May and Shepherd's Harvest that is the following weekend.
So, it will be middle to the end of May.

I will keep you posted.

I am so fortunate to have SAORI people around me a little by little.
