The Weather Notebook | Wooly Bears
Wooly Bears Wed Nov 10, 2004 Listen in RealAudio Wooly Bear Forecasts—Myth or Reality, next on The Weather Notebook. Hi, I'm Bryan Yeaton for The Weather Notebook. In a battle of long range forecasting, who’s more accurate—the wooly bear caterpillar or the computer? If you haven’t heard about this fuzzy caterpillar, it is the larval form of the Isabella Tiger Moth. In other parts of the country they are called “black-ended bears” or “wooly worms. ” They're a couple inches long, black on each end with a brown band around the middle. Folklore says that if the brown band is wide, then the winter will be mild and if the brown band is narrow, then get ready for deep snow and cold well into April. It's a quick and charming way to forecast the weather but, unfortunately, it doesn't appear to have much merit. The American Museum of Natural History and other organizations have actually studied these little critters, and found no connection between their stripes and the severity of the coming winter’s weather. Some think, however, that the stripes may indicate how bad it was last winter, as the width of the stripes seems to rely on when the caterpillar was able to emerge from hibernation, and begin its molting process.

Newsletter
Textile Traditions Newsletter March/April 2008 Use your browser's "BACK" button to return to website Click here to download printed newsletter in Adobe Acrobat (pdf) format We certainly had our share of snow this year, and for all its beauty we are heartily tired of shoveling it! Many of our customers were literally “buried” under many feet of snow—we miss you all and will be glad to visit when you can escape. The cabin fever parties were made to order for snowy weather—it was fun to get out of the house and work on projects together while enjoying great hors d’ouevres and tea. Join us at the next Cabin Fever Party on March 8. Congratulations to Angenett Taft who won the Anniversary Celebration Gift Basket! Thanks to all of you who entered the drawing, and thanks for all your support. YOU are the reason for our success. We had a great visit with our fabric reps, and of course, we ordered lots of great fabrics! We expect to receive the new fabrics between April-June. Blank had some great florals, autumn and ethnic prints (Japan & Africa) that you will love.

Suppliers | Chandler Guild
Suppliers Submitted by Brevity Airy on Tue, 06/29/2004 - 11:07. Brian - Thank you for your candid comments on the suppliers you use. That information is so valuable to those of us operating our small businesses and trying to keep costs low in an on going effort to grow our business. I do order a lot of supplies through Bittercreek and I do appreciate their good business practices and consistantly friendly customer support staff. As for Ewe R Wooly I am relieved yet disappointed to hear that they "try" to "pull the wool over someone else's eye's" besides mine! (Pardon the pun.) Scott contacted me some time ago stating that wax prices were about to go through the roof and he pressured me to comit to and prepay for a pallet of wax. I declined because I order all my wax through Soylights. They believe in honest, fair, consistant business practices and I would like to thank them for making my life easier. Melanie and Mike Thoren have been and will continue to be incredible mentors to me.
