Happy Birthday, Marilla!!I wish you all could have seen me open the May Moonlight and Laughter samples! You would have seen my jaw drop a few times! I love love love this shop!
Ok, I know it was probably wrong of me, considering this was the sample she sent in this month, but I just snatched her "Rainbow Connection" yarn right out of her shop. If someone doesn't buy the "Marilla's Garden" roving, I'm going to go back and get it- and I won't feel guilty about it either, because here I am- telling you how awesome it is! Lime Greens, deep purples, a sunny nasturtium color and with hand dyed firestar to mix in for some bling! This roving is gorgeous.
Moonlight and Laughter is one of those hidden gems of etsy- once you've bought from Marilla, it is easy to make it a habit!
Marilla is so generous, she sent in 4 oz of her hand painted super squishy superwash roving in the "Marilla's Garden" colorway as a giveaway! Just visit her shop, and find something you like (she's open to custom orders!) and post about it below. I will draw a random name on Friday, and remember I will count your extra tweets, plurks, facebook updates and blogposts as extra entries! Help spread the happiness!
Thank you so much, Marilla for the opportunity to purchase the most amazing rainbow colorway yarn I have ever seen. You Rock.

If I hadn't already spent my fiber budget (twice), I would so be buying that Blue Mountain River roving . . . or the Marilla's Garden. Next month for sure.
I love this one, it's a green bulky weight yarn
Ohhh, Golden Slumbers is beautiful!
Marilla's Garden is indeed gorgeous, but so are Golden Slumbers (spinning fiber) and Blue Mountain River (fiber).

I do like the Marilla's Garden, but I think my favorite is the worsted weight,"Limelight". I can't resist purples and greens together.

Okay, I don't normally speak up these days due to time constraints, but I am now elbowing my way through the crowd to the front. I love all of her stuff, but even more, Marilla is a really awesome, down to earth person... and I love, love, LOVE the name of her store, I've always been smitten with it since I laid eyes on it.
oooo i really like Hand Painted Superwash Merino Wool in Blue Days and Green Nights. i really love the red color. it just pops and i think really adds something great to the roving! thanx for sharing!
this colorway (marilla's garden) IS my favorite!! I spun up the sample that I got in my box, and it is beautiful. I bought some from her this weekend! Send me more!! ;) I also love the Scarlet and Begonia roving.
Blue Days and Green Nights looks like it would be fun to spin up! I am loving the Marilla's Garden as well (and hope I get a smidge of it in my box)!!
The shop is on my list of favourites and I check it every day or so.
All of the fiber is gorgeous! I especially love the roving in colorway "Trillium". LOVE LOVE LOVE!
:)

I liked the April Phatfiber roving the best...the colors are beautiful. Also love the color combos in the yarns; they are great!
I would love to win this giveaway! I have a nice bag of "Storm Before the Calm" roving I just purchased from Marilla and I love it. In her shop, I really like the "Blue Mountain River". The way her colors blend is soothing and lovely and I have to remind myself that I should spin my roving instead of just petting it. I keep it out so I can look at it whenever I walk by. :)
The Blue Mountain Rivers Hand Painted Merino Roving is so beautiful,
Unusual for me, since I usually go for hot colors, this roving, Blue Mountain River is truly scrumptious.
Love it!
I love the "Red, Red Wine" roving! So pretty!
I love the sample that was sent in the box this month. http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=25546212
I didn't know she had it in her store and a good price too! Must. Resist. Spending. More. Money. On. Yarn!

I love Hand Painted Fingering Weight Merino Superwash Sock Yarn. 435 Yards, 3.5 ounces it reminds me of a peacocks feathers.Hugs Darcy
I love the richness of color in the 'Golden Slumbers' superwash merino roving.
Gah!! Someone beat me to the Marilla's Garden roving. I hope more goes up because it is gorrrrrgeous!
"Walk at Midnight light bulky is calling me - I might have to get it but I just spent my budget at the great lakes fiber fest.
I recently ordered from Moonlight & Laughter, and the worsted yarn is so soft! Already thinking about what I want to order next... tempted by the sock yarn, and like the King of the Carrot Flowers colorway :)
I love the "Islands in the Sun" roving. It's so springtime-y!
her gorgeous colorways!
love love love the colors of Octopus'Garden in the bulky weight yarn!
Ok, I just love the Marilla's Garden.

Octopus' Garden is soooo pretty. Good name for it.

I love the way she has her milk fiber in a measuring cup! So cute and unique.
I love the merino roving dyed in the Blue Mountain River colorway. Very pretty.
I love the "Early Morning Rain" sock yarn. I also like that she carries a variety of weights in her shop...I love bulky weight yarn, but sometimes it is harder to find from independent artists.

The Golden Slumbers superwash merino is very enticing!
I love the bright, sherbert-like colors of the "Islands in the Sun" roving.
I love the subtle touch of colors in the Superwash merino wool roving named "Golden Slumbers" ~
It reminds me of sunlight filtered through amber colored antique window panes. It left me imagining getting to spend time curled up with a good book in a sunny window seat.
