The Highland Fibre Fling is Indigodragonfly’s annual studio Open House. This year we’ve expanded the program to include some activities for those who want to spend the weekend in Haliburton!

NOTE: the map graphic shown on this page is not accurate for most people (for me, it’s showing that we live in Alabama. We don’t!)so please use the map link below AND the written directions linked below.
