Yes, no, maybe so?

Hello, my readers. I would like to know what you think about some of the content on the blog? I really enjoy the fleece porn. This is mainly because it let's me surf the web for fleece that is just too yummy not to share. Also, That's so Ewe is a cute one. There are so many people who have a hard time finding sheep items. So, I like to help by scouting ahead. I'm working on some other content, but would like to know something about what I'm already doing.

Did you like the fiber terms broken down into everyday speak?
Do I need an image for every post?

Now, I know everyone loves tutorials, are there any types that you'd like to see more of? Also, are there too many pictures or not enough?

Please, feel free to offer your constructive criticisms.

And so the new year began.

Over the holiday break Lifetime showed 'Julie & Julia'. For a while I've been waiting for it to ship from the Netflix DvD Queue, but Lifetime came up quicker. This is one of my new favorite female lead stores. Julie Powell reminded me how a blog should be written. It's a story of what a person does with real focus out there for everyone. I have a focus, but it's lately been a somewhat flashy collection of fluffy yum yums and sheep, or another shop blog trying to push product. This is not what this blog is supposed to be. I want this blog to be more meaningful and enriching. Thank you for the major redirect, Julie!

I'm stepping it up a notch to bring in all sorts of fiber arts. Being a full time fiber artist is going to be great!! Let's bring on the tutorials, experiments, works in progress, and finished objects. I'll be keeping the fluff, but adding pizazz!

Wednesday, will be the first tutorial of the new year. I'll be showing everyone how to make these cute gift tags for writing down care instructions for handmade items.

Have a fantastic day!
