Gallery Gazing

This week we are anticipating the release   of Module 2 in our Golden Fleece Fiber Creativity course (scheduled for 6 January). We have seen some wonderful yarns coming in as a result of Module One, as people have worked through the materials. So I thought this week was a great time to highlight one of the features on our FiberyGoodness.com website – the Gallery! We are thrilled to see it  filling up with some truly amazing, thoughtful, stunning, and creative

Weaving in Circles

Weaving in Circles

We are thrilled to see that many course participants now have their Golden Fleece Circular Looms in their hands and are already beginning with the fun that is weaving in circles!

Module One Yarns

We really did it! You, Arlene, me, here we all are, several weeks into our journey already!

Lets Get This Party Started!

This is what I stared at (with some large degree of triumphant-ness I must say) on my screen for a few minutes this morning after sending out the mail with the module link:   Mailchimp, our bulk email platform. I do like how quirky it is 🙂 And it felt pretty good to be (virtually) high-fived

Gathering Things

In just a few short days, we embark! In last week’s newsletter, we talked about some pre-course homework to help you get warmed up for what is to come.  That assignment was to collect five images each of  that make you happy, sad, thoughtful and creative.  I know a number of you have created Pinterest boards and shared the link on the Members Only Forum Thread and the  Group’s Facebook page. I have created a board on Pinterest also and

Getting Ready!

Getting Ready!

Here we are with a new blog post, an update, a headsup, and a warm up 🙂 What direction are we heading?! First the update, because this is super cool! We have some progress pics of our Majacraft looms currently being made! We will let you know as soon as they are ready to ship, there are quite a lot to be cut out and engraved with our special course logo, but it will be worth the wait, and, for
