White elephant gift exchange and Joannes treasure trove of bobbins from Susan

Bring your own fruit, fruit salad with St Lucia buns

 Everything about our gathering, on St Lucias' day at Susan's shop, was fun and laughter filled.  It is such a visual plethora of color and fiber throughout her studio and shop, that I am endlessly happy to wander around taking pictures. Between eating the yummy fruit salad and sweet St. Lucia buns, and learning how to make monrovian stars I almost forgot to shop.
Joannes idea to do a white elephant gift exchange turned out to be a lot of fun.  It turns out that one persons fibery discard is definately another persons treasure.
All in all a wonderful day to be with fellow weavers and friends and to see what Susan has been up to in her very inspirational studio.
