Alpaca-kerchifs

A good friend of mine embroidered these for the "boys". I wanted something for them to wear during hunting season. With the fencing extending into the woods,, concerned the deer hunters will mistake them for a deer.

The cutest "fuzzy butt"

I couldn't resist,,,, The back side of Big Brown! Actually,, there really is an Alpaca farm in Kentucky named "Fuzzy Butt Alpacas". LOVE IT!!

Bracelet Bag

I needed something little just to hold my keys, cellphone and license when I go to Church. Just too cumbersome to carry a big purse. Hence, a pattern I found for a bracelet bag. Takes about 3 hours to make... Use bracelets as handles and fits nicely on my wrist!!

My "recycled" doll creation

This is my first "doll" composed of a soft angora sweater (found at my local Goodwill for $3.00)... The baby hair is some Alpaca fiber. Hand sewn (and for the folks that know me,,, I strongly dislike sewing!!!) I think this one may have to go to my Goddaughter!

A "labor day" of fiber dying

A customer has ordered several pink felted soaps for Breast Cancer Awareness Month (October).. So I had to get busy and do some fiber dying.
First you bundle the fiber w/ties at both ends. You soak it in the citric acid/water bath for 30 minutes. Next,, into the pot of pink for 30 minutes. I dry it on the rack.. then into balls of roving for easier manipulation when making the soaps!

Savannah and Tybee Island

From the Lady and Sons (owned by another Paula-Paula Deen),, to the Savannah Riverwalk,, beautiful Tybee Island... I loved it all!!!!! I think I just might have to retire in the South!!



















I love the South!! I could so be a full time beach bunnie or southern belle!

Can an Alpaca be a Ham?

Big Brown and Woody (the black one-Woodford's Journey-aka Woody) hamming it up for my camera. These guys ALWAYS stop and look when a camera is around. Big Brown has even started smiling for me!! So,, I guess the answer is YES,, an Alpaca can be a ham!!! :)
