Last fall, the spinners were given the challenge: To Play Fiber Poker. Hmmm, doesn't sound much like a spinner's activity, but perhaps times were desperate. It was a really long winter.
Fiber Polka is played with cards, but these are not ordinary cards. There are five categories, fiber, color, texture, add-in and use. Each spinner draws one card from each category, this becomes her\his poker hand. Thus, the challenge is: "Just what do you do with your hand". For example, Julianna drew cotton, red, knitted, tassel, jewelry. How do you think she did...

And there were a couple that although unique, my camera choose not to save them. The missing hands were Wanda's mohair, purple, woven, tassel and doily/rug; Anna's mohair, red, firm, buttons, bag/purse (an I-pad sleeve). It never ceases to amaze me...the depth of the creativity and insight when given a challenge...Well done, challenge met.
