If you cannot make it over yet this evening, stop sometime in the near future and Gwen Handler's amazing work...

GUEST ARTIST:

Gwen Handler 's specialty is weaving blankets of yarn from sheep raised on Hill Farm.

Handler and her family live on the Hill Farm outside Westminster with a flock of Leicester Longwool Sheep and a herd of Norwegian Fjord ponies.
