Day 1: Made quite a bit of progress today. Sad that tomorrow Tweety flies out to Alaska. She’s a perfect bird for #tourdefleece2021. Day 1: Spun a lot of EZ Spin Acala Cotton dyed by @longdrawjames on Tweety the Sparrow. #DaedalusSparrowMigrationProgram #SpinningWithTweetyTheSparrow #WhereIsTweetyTheSparrow #daedalusspinningwheels #daedalusmagpie #daedalussparrow #electricspinner #electricspinningwheel #spinningwheel #igspinnersinspiration #spinningyarn #igspinners #spinnersofinstagram #spinstagram #wemakeyarn #handspunstagram #spinnersoftheworld #handspinnersofinstagram #handspinning #handspinnersofig #yarnspinners #yarnspinnersofinstagram #yarnspirations #tourdefleece #tourdefleece2021 #tdf2021 #TeamAkerworks2021 #TeamDaedalus2021 #twftdf2021 #twfflagviolet

#WhereIsTweetyTheSparrow As part of the #DaedalusSparrowMigrationProgram I took Tweety to @farrel.mcwhirter super early yesterday for a little adventure. This tree is one of my favorites there. #SpinningWithTweetyTheSparrow #daedalusspinningwheels #daedalussparrow #spinwithdaedalus #electricspinner #electricspinningwheel #spinningwheel #igspinnersinspiration #spinningyarn #igspinners #spinnersofinstagram #spinstagram #wemakeyarn #handspunyarn #handspunwool #handspunstagram #spinnersoftheworld #handspinnersofinstagram #handspinning #handspinner #handspinnersofig #spinningwool #yarnspinners #yarnspinnersofinstagram #yarnspirations #nurselog #nursestump #cedarstump

I can finally talk about where Rosie flew off to! I was originally fostering Rosie to do some promotional spins with and then we came up with a wonderful joint program between @fiberygoodness and @daedalusspinningwheels as part of their sponsorship up tinyStudio Creative Life Magazine. We have jointly created a program intended to help foster the creativity and skills of new spinners. Our very first spinner for the New Spinners Apprenticeship is @arohaknits. Her work as a knitwear designer is incredible and ever since I heard she took up spinning last year I’ve been so excited to see how learning to spin would affect her work as a designer. It’s going to be such a fun adventure! #NewSpinnerApprenticeship #fiberygoodness #daedalusspinningwheels #tinystudiocreativelife #daedalusstarling #StarlingV3 #spinwithdaedalus #electricspinner #espinner #electricspinningwheel #spinningwheel #igspinnersinspiration #spinningyarn #igspinners #spinnersofinstagram #spinstagram #wemakeyarn #handspun #handspunyarn #handspunwool #handspunstagram #spinnersoftheworld #handspinnersofinstagram #handspinning #handspinner #handspinnersofig #spinningwool #yarnspinners #yarnspinnersofinstagram #yarnspirations

I’m super anxious for Tweety the Sparrow to arrive! I’ll only have her for the weekend so I’ve been busy planning everything out for our short adventure together. I’ve been heavily debating what to spin for my 5 grams on the Community bobbin. Then I recalled I have a bin full of samplers. The first sampler I pulled out was this beautiful pigtail by @greenwoodfiberworks that is absolutely the most fitting colorway I could have ever chosen for my contribution to the Community Bobbin. There is nothing I could ever spin that would be more appropriate. I know you all know these are my colors but aside from that these are the colors of where I live near Puget Sound where the colorway gets its name from. Carolyn of @greenwoodfiberworks is from the town I live in and so she has lived and breathed the colors of Puget Sound. She captured the colors so perfectly. 💚💙🤎 #DaedalusSparrowMigrationProgram #SpinningWithTweetyTheSparrow #WhereIsTweetyTheSparrow #daedalusspinningwheels #daedalussparrow #spinwithdaedalus #electricspinner #electricspinningwheel #spinningwheel #igspinnersinspiration #spinningyarn #igspinners #spinnersofinstagram #spinstagram #wemakeyarn #handspunyarn #handspunwool #handspunstagram #spinnersoftheworld #handspinnersofinstagram #handspinning #handspinner #handspinnersofig #spinningwool #yarnspinners #yarnspinnersofinstagram #yarnspirations

The fiber prepped by @clemesandclemes for my article in the Electric Issue of @plymagazine was such a delight to spin. I participated in a 4 person article series. The first is on dyeing by @alexcreates, second is on prep by @clemesandclemes, third is spinning by me, and the 4th is knitting by @kateatherleyknits. Here’s one of the colors I spun up! All three colors I had to spin up played do beautifully together. #plymagazine #writingforplymagazine #igspinnersinspiration #spinningyarn #igspinners #spinnersofinstagram #spinstagram #wemakeyarn #handspun #handspunyarn #handspunwool #handspunstagram #spinnersoftheworld #handspinnersofinstagram #handspinning #handspinner #handspinnersofig #fiberfeature #fiberyfun365 #Spin15aday #yarnspinners #yarnspinnersofinstagram #daedalusspinningwheels #daedalusstarling #StarlingMini #electricspinner #espinner #electricspinningwheel #spinningwheel

Yesterday this absolutely gorgeous SIGNED copy of @joelsartore’s Photo Ark book arrived! I’ve long admired Joel’s incredible photography through his Photo Ark series. I got into studio photography back in university and love the stark contrast between studio lighting and backgrounds with nature oriented subject matter. While I don’t have the ability to shoot wildlife like this I love shooting a variety of flowers this way. Some day I hope to incorporate fascinating insects and macro photography like this. Joel Sartore and @igorsiwanowicz are a huge inspiration to me with how they both capture the critters they shoot in a personifying manner that draws the viewer in allowing them to relate to subjects they may have never thought they could relate to. #natureandwildlifephotography #wildlifephotography #wildlifephotographer #thephotoark #photoark #studiophotography
