Midwest Fiber Crafts - a NEW Blog and Facebook fan page for promoting fiber events and activities across the Midwestern United States

I've established another blog for posting fiber events and activities across the Midwest.  It is called Midwest Fiber Crafts.  The goal of MFC is to freely promote Midwest fiber events of all kinds as well as provide a good information source for Midwestern fiber enthusiasts.  If you know of any fiber event or activity happening in the Midwest this year, please submit it to MFC for posting.  MFC also has a facebook fan page that I hope you will follow.  You can freely post your events directly to the wall there and upload photos as well as start discussions.  

Other than some sponsorship ads, this is mainly a labor of love.  My husband and I really enjoy attending fiber event.  (I think we'd go to one every weekend if we could find them!)  I hope this new blog helps others to find great fiber events to attend and support fiber farmers and other fiber business people.

Please take a minute to pass along this new blog and fan page to your fiber loving friends and family.  I would sincerely appreciate it!

Not one, but TWO artsy craftsy events going on this weekend in the Kansas City area!

If you live in the Kansas City area there are two great events going on this coming weekend!

On Saturday, March 20th, Gypsy Emporium will be at the Madrid Theatre in Westport.  It is free to attend, and there will be fun for the whole family including artists, crafters, music, and activities throughout the day.  Click here for complete details and directions.

There is also the MOPACA Invitational Alpaca Show this weekend at the American Royal.  Stephen and I went last year and had a blast!  There are more alpacas than I've ever seen in one place before.  It also has alpaca shows and other events throughout the weekend as well as some alpaca and other fiber vendors.  It is very family friendly too with many kids of all ages attending.
