...a note from Lilly.... I love to work with fabrics and fibers. I've been knitting and sewing since I was about 10. One of my favorite activities is to locate new stores & shows. That's where I acquire most of my unique fibers and fabrics. In an effort to support other artisans, I search for farms that produce yarns from their own sheep. Many of the wools in my felted bags, scarves and shawls come from wonderful farms in the Mid-Atlantic states. Occasionally, I'll find an amazing fabric or fiber on a vacation. (I found fabulous fibers in San Francisco on a Girl's Trip). I attend the Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival every year and I always come home with a wonderful "stash" of new goodies. I can't wait to delve into the new fibers! Creating new designs and blending amazing fibers is a passion for me. Special orders are no problem. In fact, I welcome them!
