Update tonight 9pm EST
I only have a few colorways to offer as I am plum out of fiber until next week. I wasn't going to go up to Estes Park for the wool fest this weekend, but I just might so I can grab a small amount of fiber to tie me over until my delivery comes.

New blog and featured in Spin Off magazine!
I just got finished transferring my old LiveJournal blog entries over to this blog. Phew! Glad that's over with.
Not a whole lot to say right now. Should be dyeing for the update tomorrow. I'm really low, uber low, on fiber right now and after this is dyed up I'll be lucky to have any for the following update. My crack dealer, e'hem fiber dealer, is delaying the shipment a bit so I'm in a bit of a bind.
What else is new? Ahhhh, I've been featured in Spin-Off magazine's "Get This" section. I tend to keep things of this nature to myself as I am a wee bit shy in this respect, but I have been encouraged to share, so here it is:
Lastly, I have finally gotten my website up and running thanks to the wonderful Miss Velvet. She really came through for me at a time when I was ready to throw my computer out the window. My website is very simple. Just the way I like it. Here she is: Poppy Flower Fibers.
That's about it. Really need to dive into those dyepots. Time to crank up the tunes and get to work.
First update in 2 months (june 02, 2009 lj blog entry)
I am so happy that my strength has returned and that I am able to dye again. I had so much fun with this lot. Here are some pics of what I will be offering in my store at 9pm est tonight. 
You can see more pics on my Flickr page. :) poppy flower fibers

Hey all! Here are some of the Colorway Compilations I was talking about earlier. I'm pretty excited about them and looking forward to seeing the yarn buyers spin with them. :)

here are some i dyed up recently that are now in my etsy shop. 
I'm kind of glad that my surgery is only 10 days away. I can feel myself reaching burnout. Should be able to get in a couple more batches of dyeing within the next few days before I need to stop for at least a month. http://poppyflowerfibers.etsy.com
last day with miss luna (from march 19 lj blog post)
26 hours left with my 16 1/2 year old lunagirl. she has an appointment with the vet tomorrow at noon. today we are making the best of it. i purchased some yummy dick van patten's natural balance gourmet foods. this morning was "irish stew", tonight will be "southern style dumplin's with gravy", and tomorrow's breakfast will be "hobo chili with chicken and pasta". she loved this morning's breakfast so i am happy she is enjoying her last meals. also purchased some "human grade" buffalo chew treats. the idea of these totally grosses me out, but she's never had them before so i figure she might as well experience all she can in these last few hours.
took her for a nice drive this morning where she got some time sticking her head out the window and enjoying the breeze. today is a beautiful day, so i expect her to do a good bit of sunbathing on the deck which she loves.
i also purchased a big fat stuffed squeaky toy for my other dog, miss poppy flower. she will be given this when i take luna to the vet tomorrow. i am hoping it will make her happy enough to distract her. she has *never* been separated from luna in her 12 years of life and i know she cries if i even take luna outside the front door for a moment without bringing her along. the vet thinks it would be best to not bring poppy to the euthanasia because she is highly intelligent and sensitive (border collie) and it might really depress her and she might associate the vet's office with the loss of her friend. so she will be staying behind.

I've been playing around with my dyeing techniques because I get bored and have to shake things up a little bit. Here are the results:
