Hello,
This is an oppertunity for you to introduce yourself and tell what it is that you are interested in, in the Fiber Arts. Maybe you are simply a lover of the Arts or you create them yourself.
Take the time to tell what you do. *why you are here*

I am LarZaina, you can call me Larz. I'm your guild Captain ninja and I'm a college Student in my Senior year. I study Interactive Design *web design and such* and Computer Art. I also am now apprenticing to a Weaver. I love Fiber! I also Spin, Knit, Sew, and many other Fiber related things. After I have my degree in Computer Art, Concentration Interactive Design. I plan to further my Education with a Masters in Fiber Art. I started as a Sculpture major. I changed after badly damaging my wrist and do to the fact that there is no specific Professor in the Fields of Stone Sculptore or Fiber at my current Unversity. Though I feel we do have an Awesome Fine Arts Dept. You can see some of my work at www.larzaina.deviantart.com I don't update it that often *rather busy* but I really should. Maybe you guys can help encourage me to get off my tuckas and do so. xp

I'm I Tame Lions (Tamer for short).
I'm currently at college in New England for Studio Art and Theatre (my concentration is Costume Design).
I've been making costumes for stage for little over three years now and I've been an avid artist (yay for alliterations) and crafter for as long as I can remember. I started by own company two years ago and I make everything from clothes to pillows to handpainted boxes.
I'd send links to some of my work but right now it's embarassing as I dont have any good examples of anything I do. (I hate my camera). But the link to my company is in my signature.[/shameless company plug]

I'm Jiyu 3nodding
I've been out of college now for almost two years with a B.S. in Elementary Education.
LarZ is the one who got me into fiber heart It all started with innocent knitting... I'm working on an awesome hat at the moment and then I need to get back to knitting Bolweevil a new scarf 3nodding As soon as I get through all my boxes from just moving, I'll be able to unearth my drop spindle and get back to some spinning as well!
I have interest in learning to crochet. My grandmother taught me the basic chain stitch when I was a kid, but that was about it.

I'm December, and I'm a senior at Southern Illinois University Carbondale studying Computer Science. I'm looking forward to finishing my degree this summer (as if 5 years of college wasn't enough, I need summer school, too), and I'm excited about actually doing something instead of studying theory.
I'm a knitter, a crocheter, and a spinner. I've been knitting for about 3 and a half years, and crocheting for 1 and a half. I've been spinning with a drop spindle for a little more than year, and I just got my first wheel in September.

Hell everyone. I'm Michiru. I cross stich, make simple plushies out of felt and fleece, and do some embriodering. I hope to some day learn how to sew my own clothing.
You can check out my Deviant Art page for examples of my work. (Link)

A nice cheap beginner's wheel. I got the deposit back from my last apartment, and it went right to the wheel. xp

Greetings! I'm an art student from ohio, studying fine art. I knit, sew, embroider, and crochet when my carpal tunnel isn't bothering me too much. I have a blog where you can see my fiber and other artwork (I also make ceramic pots that look like cabled sweaters!), which you can find at knotmagick.blogspot.com.

I'm Neko-chan. I'm a friend to Jiyu and LarZ. LarZ taught me how to knit. I tried teaching her how to Cross-stitch... It didn't work to well I guess. sweatdrop
So to what I do.. I knit, I crotchet a little, I embroider, I sew, and i plan to also learn how to tat and quilt. ^_^
