Ontario Handspinning Seminar – live and kicking!

Alanna Wilcox is an art teacher by day and a fibre artist by night. She has  always loved the fibre arts and got into spinning 8 years ago and has been  hooked ever since. In her spare time she makes and sells her handcarded batts on Etsy as ‘Spinnybuns’. She is also currently enrolled in the OHS Spinning Certificate Program.
