Happy Valentine's Day and The Promise of Spring

One of my favorite rites of spring is setting up my table at the Wednesday morning Farmer's Market in Monument Square in Portland.  This is a picture from last year, I'm guessing June because I am wearing a sweater.  I bring along my spinning wheel to keep me busy and out of trouble and an assortment of hand dyed yarns, roving, wool for rugs, dolls, patterns, and whatever I have on hand that I think might amuse you.  I'll be doing it again this year, probably starting the first of June through the end of August.  (The Market itself runs from May to November I believe.)  I'll keep you posted.  The snowbanks are so high outside my house right now that I felt like we could all use a reminder that, given that spring has arrived every year so far, it will undoubtedly show up again this year.  Round about February I need this reminder.  Happy Valentines Day!

    About Martha


    The Threads of Meaning is a collection of my hand made creations and the materials I use to make them.  I quilt, sew, spin, knit, crochet, weave, make dolls, rugs (hooked and braided) and tat. I have had articles in Art and Antiques (May 2001) and American Quilter (Ultimate Projects 2004). I have sold work to the State of Hawaii and some very dedicated private collectors. I dye my own fibers and use vintage and new materials. I tend to prefer traditional techniques and natural materials used in innovative ways.
