Souper Tuesday 2019



  She couldn't have picked a better day to start weaving!
  Welcome to Elizabeth, our new weaver.

  We weren't at the Center last week because of the weather, so it was very lively this morning.  But, Carol sat down with Elizabeth to get her started on her new journey.






  You see....today is our Souper Tuesday....and, as always, the Tuesday Weavers out did theirselves!!!













  We had crockpots plugged in under the table as well.





  And, the counter was full of sandwiches, bread and desserts.
  Oh, yes.....this was the day to start weaving!!!!

                                                         









  We got busy weaving at our looms in anticipation of lunchtime.  Carl was back at the barn loom working on another rug.




Ray went back to work on his double weave project.









      





  Our Ladies all in a row were busy with their warps.  (Liz is in the planning stage with her towel warp.)
  Yes, that's Ken, Frieda's husband.  I'm sure there is a story there, but I don't have the details!



  This is a conclave!  I'm sure it was important weaving talk!!!!!
  (Bonnie assured me that she has woven one whole repeat of her pattern!)


  Tina is working on the large Inkle loom...we've got to get started on our key chains for 2020.   Patty is taking a break from twisting the fringes on the scarf she finished, while Charlotte is looking for new ideas!
  Connie and Dicky joined us today....smart move!!!





  Alyce got busy winding a new warp....could this be her towel warp?













  Look at all those weaving books!  We have such a fantastic weaving library here at the Center.



  You might remember that Marilyn wound her first Inkle warp a few weeks back.....and now she's hooked!  She's has started doing some pick-up work on her Inkle at home!














  Peggy is making a great recovery from her shoulder surgery, and she's back to threading her warp on the Wolf Pup.  Bonnie is starting a new warp after getting the huck placemats finished. Meanwhile, Linda is weaving on the black placemat warp.  It looks like business as usual.


  The Center was the place to be today!!!  You could have had some of Pat's egg drop soup.  Yummy!
  It surely was a super Souper Tuesday!!!!
(And, from what I hear, this was much livelier than that other Super Bowl!)

Happy Weaving!

LouAnn I love your blog, the pictures, and the wonderfully helpful weavers of the group. I read the blog you suggested, Daryl’s Blog, and found it humorously comforting. It’s good to know that we all make mistakes...they can be fixed...it’s only fabric!!

Oh gosh I just ate and all that yummy food is making me hungry again! As I always say when I make a mistake weaving. No one dies and it's only string. :-)
Welcome new weavers!!
