There may still be lots of boxes:
But the fiber is finding a home. The shelf you see in the picture above is holding all the luxury fibers (each bin is a different one) and there are almost 30 flavors of fibers in large bins (those are 10-20 lbs of each):
And the wheels have a found a home. There is plenty of room to move around:
And you can see behind it, the carders and such. The spindles are still on display in the other room and will move in as soon as the wall behind where they will sit, is covered in peg board to hang fiber. In the next week or 2, I have all the looms arriving. I can’t wait to get them warped and displayed.
And to prove that I’m not JUST working on the shop, but working on it’s filling:
Twinkle batts. Single color batts with sparkle.
These are up for ordering on the Fiber Blend Page.
Ones that aren’t up yet are the new “Heathers”.
I’m going to try to have a ton of these done for the Vermont Sheep and Wool in a couple of weeks.
And because there was interest in seeing how “Jack” knit up:
Yes, I’m working on yarns and fibers in this. Sadly I don’t think I’ll have time to list it before I leave for Vermont but you can always order some from the Custom Yarns Page.
And now I need to leave to get the kids together and head over to the shop for the day.

Yay! I will see you at VT Sheep & Wool. (I want to see those heathers.
)

Looking forward to seeing you in Vermont, especially because I now have begun spinning (or trying, anyway). A whole new world of fiber fun has opened up and I think it might include those heathers.

The shop looks great!

My fingers got all tingly just looking at all the fibery goodness in one place!!! I suddenly need to knit and spin and use up what I have so I can shop for more.
You’re a fiber pusher…that’s what you are!!! Nicely done.

Ooooh! I like Jack knit up.
August 15th, 2007 at 10:46 am
The shop is really coming along. You have been busy! The batts are so pretty!
August 15th, 2007 at 11:02 am
Is it just me, or do those batts look like sweets? Just me, then?
August 15th, 2007 at 11:14 am
The shop looks great. Some progress is better than none, right?
The heather batts are going to be gorgeous!!
August 15th, 2007 at 11:44 am
Ok, you had me at the twinkle batts but the heather batts…Oh…My…GOODNESS.
Must have.
Will there be extras available for sale over at the store?

I was looking at all those photos and thinking to myself “how much money would I have to save to be able to go to Amy’s shop and play?” And then I had to remind myself, “I would also need some money to shop with”
August 15th, 2007 at 4:44 pm
Oh, you’ll be at the Vermont Sheep and Wool! That makes for yet another reason why I’d love to make the trip! Now, I definitely have to make it happen this year…
August 15th, 2007 at 6:00 pm
I may be a little “too” in love with Jack! I may just have to “order” some before our trip in October so that I can “just happen” to find it while shopping
We have 5 seats on the plane and only 4 suitcases, so that means I can really stock up right? Oh, I can’t wait.
August 15th, 2007 at 6:51 pm
Some day I’m coming by for a visit and some shopping!
August 15th, 2007 at 7:50 pm
The shop looks great! So much more room than the other shop. This means more people can fit in it at once, yeah!
Did you say looms? I didn’t know you were a weaver too. I have an old loom in my attic and I have no idea how to use it. I guess I’ll have to take that up some day.
August 15th, 2007 at 9:18 pm
Those new blends remind me of jelly beans, mmmm jelly beans. The shop is coming along nicely - I’m still really loving those pink shelves.
Vermont already? Geeze, I better get spinning. I have spun nothing yet that I got from you at MA. Why does life always have to be in the way of the fun stuff?
August 16th, 2007 at 7:56 am
Yay! The shop is coming together quite nicely.
August 16th, 2007 at 3:45 pm
I’m glad to see the shop is coming along so well. Your Mother is telling her customers that her web site will be up in 2 weeks. Is she dreaming
August 16th, 2007 at 6:12 pm
Ohhh to have a space like that! PLEASE tell me it is air-conditioned!
Those Batts look great. You are living my dream life Amy!
August 16th, 2007 at 11:58 pm
I want to come shop when Margene does. I would love to meet both of you!
Your shop is going to be awesome. When you get it done, take a picture while everything is all nice and neat. Must be nice to have all that space for your wheels. I know you have to be loving it and will love it more when you have time to play with them.
August 18th, 2007 at 8:32 am
Lovely shop! I’m so jealous of all of your gorgeous fibers! Have fun.
August 20th, 2007 at 2:22 pm
YEAH! Can’t wait to see you at the VSF!
