With our lovely fall colors comes a plethora of artist studio tours to tempt me from getting back to weaving. This year hubby and I did the Fresh Art Tour in west central WI. I had so much fun talking with two weavers in Alma, WI that I almost didn’t make it to the actual tour. Marcia Kjos and her daughter were delightful to talk to, but with my husband circling the block; I think I should come back with my fiber group and hang out with them some more.

The very next day, two friends and I headed across the river to the Northeast Iowa Studio Tour. I have attended this tour for many years and am always happy to see new work from favorite artists. I will be back to weaving soon, if this lovely fall doesn’t keep distracting me.
