Anticipation



Ahhhh.....anticipation....the art of waiting!

  Today was the day we were going to be treated to a pizza lunch from a local shop, and the weavers were looking forward to having lunch brought to the Studio.   We had plenty to do to keep us busy while we waited for lunchtime.

  Our anticipated yarn order came quickly--we just ordered last week, and here it is!  Great Northern does a great job.  Marie checked the cones off the list while Pearl put them on the shelf.






  Carol was kept busy helping the weavers plan projects and calculate yardage.  She kept an eye on Lou Ann as she finished threading the heddles and started to sley the reed.  (This means she'll be weaving next week!!!!)

(*******Yummmmm.....how long until lunch???)











 

  Carl wove two full shuttles of blue jean weft...it might be time to weave in a heading a start a new rug!










  Don't those warps look great!  Liz and Jocelyn were focused on their looms as we waited for lunch.






   Oh....those Ladies!  They sure do keep things humming on their side of the room.  Yes, and they weave, too!!!

 













  Ray has been weaving on the second double weave table cloth.  This one is going much quicker than the first one did!
  Mary keeps cranking out the white on white placemats....always a good seller!


 



  Team work!!!!  Betsy is putting a new warp on the Macomber for another set of placemats.  Pat and Charlotte jumped in to help.







  Is it time for lunch, yet? 

We waited......and waited..........

No delivery.

Guess we won't be recommending them to anyone.

It's a good thing Bonnie brought a bucket of tomatoes to share with the weavers.

Happy Weaving!
LouAnn
