We love wool!!!!

"Farming Monthly National HRH The Prince of Wales announces global Campaign for Wool"

My wonderful students! (and my IA Jackie!)





We created this power point to send to the Teen Parent Program so that the moms could see the kids making the items for their children. We delivered our first "batch" Friday, and it was a HUGE success!! The parents were amazed and appreciative of my students and their Fiber Art--I'm so proud of them!!!
