Hey lady, a guy needs some personal alone time, if ya know what I mean.

Stop staring at me, you freak!

Not everyone likes a little conversation in the morning, I guess.  Oh, well.  At least, there's sky behind him.

Moving on!

Monday, Kris from Sonny & Shear mentioned on her blog that they were having  a Monday Moving Sale* and one of the things listed was a company that does roving.

You know I had to go look.

When I came to, I had my Visa in my hand and a sense of well being that was a lovely change from my normal state of mind.

That was Monday afternoon, my time.

I'm guessing Kris mailed my little package on Tuesday morning because of the time difference between us.  (By the time I ordered Monday it was after hours on the east coast.)

Thursday, there was fluff waiting for me at the post office.

And, frankly, it was the only thing that went well on Thursday.

The roving braids are from Barrister Lane Fiber and they are even prettier in person.  Click to embbiggen and see more product info.

There is even talk of a Spin Along with the orange roving.

No.  I have no idea what's happened to me.  I'm just reporting what I know, which isn't much.

(Opal & Manise wanted to see the roving.  Once they've seen this, they have.)

Happy Saturday, people!

* Kris mentions that there will another couple Monday Moving Sales in case you're interested.  I am looking forward to seeing what's on sale this Monday and also a little afraid.  I feel madly hopelessly in love with some roving over there and doubt I'll be strong enough to resist if it's on sale.  /sigh

i can see why you couldn't resist. those two are gorgeous bits of fluff!

is it just me or is the one on the right more red then orange?

cute squirrel!

[joan]

Clever backdrop!
Clever Squirrel!
xo

[Norma]

That background is TEASING ME!!!! :D

[Carrie]

ROFL - I didn't notice the backdrop until I read Joan's comment. You're the most evil person I know. Don't ever change.
I think I have roving somewhat similar to that red/orange stuff that I dyed my very own self. I might should dig it out...

[Anne]

I don't think you mean to be an enabler...do you? (running off to subscribe to Kris's blog so I don't miss the last Monday sale)

[Manise]

Nice Russian backdrop-hehe. Pretty fluff you got there. :-) Some fluff may have followed me home today.

Who knew squirrels like catalpa trees? Great for hiding I'm sure, though clearly not from you o.0

[Sarah]

The evil tempting and the teasing are almost too much, or perhaps they are perfect.

xo

[Nora]

? You've gone over the edge, my friend.

I might not be far behind - I have "the book" out from the library - the one Margene recommended.

xoxo

[Megan S.]

It worries me that she's putting more goodies on sale tomorrow. Every Monday.

That's a pretty green!! I got a similar semi-solid, only it's pink ;-)

[Carole]

Is that really all the roving you have? You seriously need to buy more next Monday then.

[Jeanne]

Gorgeous roving - I can see why you had to get them. And how nice of you to mention that there is another sale tomorrow - I'll have to check it out! :-)

Sorry your squirrel wasn't in a talking mood...

[margene]

I can't see the roving for the orange lace in the back ground.

[Stacey]

Erm. What's that pretty thing behind the roving? :D And I see more orange in there. Would you like some orange silk hankies so you can spin silk? *muwahahahahaha*

:D

/runs

[Diane]

Ha ha, I put my credit cards in ice in the freezer so you can't tempt me! Of course, I do know the number by heart :D

Pretty orange, will you be unveiling it soon?

[sandy]

Great squirrel photo! That is not easy to do!
So. You are a spinner now, eh? Who knew??
XO

[Angie]

Ack, I went to go look at the roving and was so distracted I forgot to come back!

That squirrel must get up close and personal sometimes, eh? Lovely roving and so is the orange. I'm sure Norma will do her best to display it, so I have no worries about a full view photo. ;D

[gayle]

Oh, oh, oh! Green! And Orange! Oh!
If there had been purple as well, it would have been perfect...
Slavering to see more of that orange backdrop. Norma will be putty in your hands.

[Debby]

I'm so glad I don't spin, because that sale would be way too much temptation. Enjoy!

[Cristi-Lael]

Um, do you often have furry animals calling you names?

You might want to see someone about that...

[Ruth]

Oh, pretty!

I have to say, your squirrel is much fatter than the squirrels we have around here...

[JessaLu]

See? Toldja you could find more. ;op
