Another Day of Spinning,Dying and Carding

Had a great day today, i made this nice bling Batt using merino lambswool and silk tops in a gorgeous Autumn Mist color, love how it turned out. I did list this one on Etsy . I actually started ,my etsy shop back up again about 3-4 weeks ago and have yet to sell anything, i know it takes time and i'm starting to wonder weather my wares are just to boring considering some of the amazing fibre batts out there, or do i just have to have more patients lol which i will do .
More spinning using natural white romney fibre then dying in blue and purple, just left as a single at the moment but i might ply it with some nice metalic thread
These are the yarn i've made since i purchased the wheel last week, i do have another hanging to dry and forgot to unclude it in this pic, What to do with them all now  lol
