“Jill, you know you have another student, an online student!!!!!!! I am the online student!!!!! You brought me up on your weaving and spinning. I just realized that I am weaving and spinning thanks to you and this group. I live so many thousands of miles away from you, and I can be with you every day. Amazing. heart Thank you❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️’’I would also add that this portal does so much good for the world. It unites people through their creative work, work that serves home, love, peaceful living, joy and spending time together. It is a great weapon, a peaceful weapon, a weapon that shows that it is possible to live differently, together, together and with love.’’

A recent post from one our groups members…. 
“, last year I’d completely lost my confidence and with it the joy I got from my spinning and weaving. Its really thanks to the saori philosophy that I’ve regained my passion for working with fibre and I feel like that thing that was missing from my life, the thing that gave me my spark, has returned to me. Last year I struggled with depression and had problems sleeping almost every night. Now I’m sleeping better and I get up everyday with my head full of things I want to do.”
