Southeastern Animal Fiber Fair


Southeastern Animal Fiber Fair

FarmGirl's Clara and I are second from the right. 2009
I'm so excited about traveling up to Asheville to SAFF for the weekend. I've twisted Noah's arms (it took both) so he'll be coming along and will be helping me show my Jacob Sheep. He will also show a couple in the Youth Show.


In addition to seeing many different wool sheep breeds, llamas and alpacas, there is a spectacular Fiber Fair with vendors coming from all over the country! Yarns, roving, fleeces, supplies, art, etc. Three whole days of technicolor fiber! And friends, too!

In addition, I'll be trading one of my 2010 ewe lambs for a pretty ewe lamb from Patchwork Farm in GA and I'm buying a yearling ram from Swallow Lane Farm in GA. This will invigorate my Jacob breeding program quite a bit!

  1. I have been notified of an error in my post. My ram comes from Swan Valley Farm, rather than Swallow Lane. Thanks, Linda!

  2. Laura, I have scrolled down and seen all of your fabulous wool animals! I did not realize that you did so many varied creatures. I kept the bear for myself and do not regret the decision one bit. Keep up the great work. Grand Judy

  3. Thanks Judy. I'm booked pretty solid with commissions for Xmas right now. Hope to get through them all sooner rather than later and accept a few more. We'll see!
