Club Sign Ups End December 31st !!!!

 
I have been working very very hard this year to source some very special rare breeds of fibre producing animals. From Seaweed sheep to those cute Valais Blacknose .

There will be more adventures and rare breeds on offer next year including Hungarian Racka sheep and the awesome Gra TRoender sheep from Norway ! Not to mention very VERY special Qiviut and some very special super rare fluff as well !

I will be offering special blends of these rare breeds in the special IxCHeL Fibre adventures like I have done in the last two months (Smaug and Loch ness) but will also offer them to all club members in one blend or another ! Rare breeds need our help and support. Rare breeds need to survive. There is nothing more disheartening than to see that a gorgeous animal has become extinct.. There is nothing more sad than labelling anything “The last of its kind”…

Only by supporting and spinning rare breeds will we all be adding to the diversity of our beautiful world. Don’t miss out ! Membership will give you access to very special blends only released to club members in one of a kind colourways !

Join the club ! Have fun creating and Rabbit On !!!

Happy Hoppy Holiday Season

 

What a week ! What a week indeed. There has been bloodshed, murder, suicide, bullying, vindictiveness and more than anything else: loss of lives. We have not been exempt from drama and heartbreak. I could go on and on , but what really matters , now more than anything, Is to reflect on good things, to step back and be grateful for the TRUE friends we have and the LOVE we share in our lives.

So, on that note I wish you a wonderful, happy Christmas, among friends and even in this tough time for a lot of people, the most important part is to be able to look in the mirror and say a big “Cheers!” to yourself. Because at the end of the day, you are the person you have to live with 24hours a day. Be good to yourself, be good to others, be kind and be nice. It doesn’t necessarily mean that Santa will give you a present at the end of the day. Being true and honest to yourself does not mean you will have an easy ride through life. Being kind and nice actually will sometimes make it harder. However hard the road you wish to travel on, stay true to your heart and be compassionate.

Have a wonderful Christmas !!


Rabbit on !!

Not ready....yet

 

I am not ready for it to be December…absolutely not ready at all. Things have been non stop busy this last week with all the clubs and the orders having to be prepared, advanced spinning workshops, a guild Christmas show to go to, the rare breed Loch Ness Fibre adventure to do and heaps and heaps of custom orders to finish and send off…I am longing to take a breath..a deep one and sit down with some eggnog…maybe next week ;-)

The thing is, I have never really been able to slow down. That is, there are certain periods in my life I was so ..well…unable mentally or physically..that I stayed in bed or “in”..couldn’t leave the house (or bed)…for days or even weeks. Yes, really! Another confession I know..lol When I look back, there were about 4 or 5 times in my life that it was so bad I just could not go anywhere, do anything or socialise, nothing… It was a deep dark despairing time. Those were very, very bad times and I would not want to wish it on anybody. On the other hand, there were many more times I was so excited, happy and exuberantly full of ideas and creativity, I just could not help myself and be UP all the time..even stay up..well, you all know that by now.lol….my so called “nightclub spinning” time I call it now, working until dawn and all that kind of thing. I feel now , much more than anytime before, that being “me” is okay..I have accepted my Ups and Downs, that nothing is meant to be perfect, that there is not one goal or so called purpose in life, but that there are many and most importantly , the fact that you cannot be liked by everybody but you have to start liking yourself or face the consequences.

So, this week, look in the mirror and like yourself, be your own friend. Ultimately it is not how many “likes” or “ friends” you gather on facebook or other social media…You, most of all, have to be your best friend… Me, Myself and I, wish you a very happy and stress free December.

Giving and the importance of Surprise !

Iron Man :-)

The last couple of weeks have been emotionally intense..well,… when hasn’t it..lol..this week there was just a lot “on” “ workshops, prepping, blending and dyeing the club fibres, prepping all the special pigments for the LochNess adventure, prepping/blending and dyeing the Loch Ness adventure AND doing advanced spinners workshops, not to mention packing and sending the orders off and doing custom orders as well. No wonder I think 24hours is not enough time in a day.

Mentally I am doing great: I have never had such mental creative buzz going on. I guess I am just one of those people who thrive on deadlines, lots to do and being under pressure. Strange, but as soon as the pressure valve goes slack, I tend to feel more exhausted than when the pressure is on. I just tend to adapt I guess. Creativity makes more energy, just like doing more physical work gives more energy, just like…giving gets you more satisfaction than receiving..but hey, that’s just my philosophy..lol

In this month of “giving” the pressure seems to be on more than ever to give or get, depending on which side of the coin you are on. As a child – and this is so like the Monty Python sketch I remember “In MY day…we had absolutely nuthin’ “ - but we did not have a lot …at all.. my dad was very very sick from as long as I remember, coming back from the war had left him broken with only his great sense of humour keeping him alive and “being”. My mum and dad had to survive selling their art: glass work, art glass enamel insignias and more. It was a hard life and I still remember my mum staying up til the early hours in the morning to finish an order for an airline company doing all the glass enamelling that was so minute and finicky. I also remember I loved dressing up..that time I was very into the renaissance, as a 5 year old, and seeing those pirate movies with those hooped dresses and the big wigs..so I tied a pillow on top of my head like Madame de Pompadour, and strutted around in the drying room wearing sheets wrapped around me and that infamous pillow on top of my head without any idea what gravity entailed. ……until my “hairdo” fell off on top of everything my mum slaved over and/….destroyed all the work. ..I fled into the only room I could lock- the bathroom- and stayed there for a day…at the horror of my parents probably who , despite wanting to wack the living daylights out of me, needed to probably go to the bathroom more…..

We were not very well off…there were no fancy Christmas presents apart from the ones made by my mum or my grandma…and I still feel guilty for one thing: I wanted a radio….a transistor radio (look it up kids..it’s like a Bluetooth ipod)..i had asked again and again and again..til my parents obviously could take no longer and got me one. What did I do though? I kinda knew Santa was a figment of commercial imagination by then and searched under their bed…I found my present !..it even had a battery..i tried it…it worked and I heard music,.,..omg ! awesome !!!..and then I wrapped it back up, put it back ..and ……..pretended to be surprised at Christmas time. No matter what you are told at whatever point in your life: Please do not cheat and open your present before the actual present giving!!! I loved my little radio!! But I cheated ! I felt bad..maybe it was the guilt…lol…but in the end I think the surprise is even better than the gift itself. I may be wrong there, but even now, I like surprises more than getting exactly what I “asked“ for…Let’s make this time of year and indeed every day of every year a surprise. Life is much more fun that way !
Rabbit on !! I say !!! Rabbit On !

Club info Time !

 
It is that time of year again: Believe it or not but a new year is almost there (SCARY!!!) and the time to sign up for the new IxCHeL clubs starting in January 2015 ! Yes ! 2015!!!!

I have been working very very hard this year to source some very special rare breeds of fibre producing animals. From Seaweed sheep to those cute Valais Blacknose .

There will be more adventures and rare breeds on offer next year including Hungarian Racka sheep and the awesome Gra TRoender sheep from Norway ! Not to mention very VERY special Qiviut and some very special super rare fluff as well !

I will be offering special blends of these rare breeds in the special IxCHeL Fibre adventures like I have done in the last two months (Smaug and Loch ness) but will also offer them to all club members in one blend or another ! Rare breeds need our help and support. Rare breeds need to survive. There is nothing more disheartening than to see that a gorgeous animal has become extinct.. There is nothing more sad than labelling anything “The last of its kind”…

Only by supporting and spinning rare breeds will we all be adding to the diversity of our beautiful world. Don’t miss out ! Membership will give you access to very special blends only released to club members in one of a kind colourways !

Join the club ! Have fun creating and Rabbit On !!!
