<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Greetings to all the wonderful fiber artisans in
Ansteorra and to those curious about the fiber arts, from</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The Barony of Bjornsborg is proud to host a Fiber
Arts College on June 23, 2007.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>This will be 2 weeks after King's College. If
you take a fiber arts class then that you want a refresher on or want to move to
the next level, we may have the class for you. After the excitement of
outdoor classes, we are pleased to present air-conditioned classrooms and
gathering area. The indigo dyeing and loom-building classes will be
outdoors.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>This is an off-calendar event. The idea is
classes, no lunch provided - bring a lunch or go offsite to get it, more
classes, after classes a potluck dinner and spin/weave/fiber-in, either on
site or at someone's house. Just sitting around talking fiber, working on
projects and eating supper. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The website for the event is at </FONT><A
