Would You Believe It????




  Some folks thought we would not have this project done in time....after all....weaving enough bands to make over a thousand key rings!!!!

  We started early enough, and would you believe it?  We are almost there already!!!!

Today we bagged up 300 completed, tagged key rings!  And we have two tubs of bands that haven't been cut yet!!!!!










  These are just some of the completed bands for you to see. 

  I love all the different designs and color combinations!

**A big thanks to Julia for her donation to the project!  We'll get those ready to go!





  Although our other students are on vacation, Lou Ann was with us today working on her twill sampler.  She had to unweave some of the first throws, but I think she's got the hang of it now.  She even felt brave enough to take the loom home for the week!














  Carl started weaving on his placemat warp on the Harrisville loom today.  We're still working on getting him a seat that is a tad bit higher so that he is at a better height at the loom.  Right now he's sitting on two folded rugs and a cushion!!!!
  Frieda brought her newest Inkle loom project to work on at the Studio....but, she took a break after lunch to chat with friends. 


  Shirley is really liking her newest scarf on her loom.  She's using a lime green with some silver bling....it's striking.  (I tried getting a picture, but it doesn't do it justice!)  Mary got a chance to take a closer look at the pattern for the scarf.
  Bonnie and Ms. Ila just keep weaving away on their shawl warps.....it's TEN weeks until the Foothills Fall Show!
  Time flies!



  Alyce started working on the fringes for her shawls this morning.  After she gets them twisted, she can wet finish them.
  Anna's blue warp for soup cozys is coming right along.  We should have some ready for the fall show.

  Would you believe the light over Betsy's loom is out AGAIN????  It's a good thing there is a light on that loom!

Happy Weaving!
LouAnn
