Hand dyed Magic!

Phyllis was in the studio today, she is weaving on one of our hand dyed warps. She is also using some hand dyed weft, and I am totally smitten with the results!
Erin supervized her Mom, Elaine as she wound her second warp. Shirley has begun weaving that scrumptious warp that Carol wound (I also see Marilyn behind Shirley!) and Betsy is ready to thread the heddles on her towel/gift bag warp.
Judith is cutting the fabric for her rugs this week, she is going to take the strip home and fold and iron it so that it will not have any raw edges. Liz is weaving huck lace napkins using white as the warp and linen color as the weft, love it!
Now it is time for Show and Tell! Judith brought in 2 scarves and a towel that she had finished at home. Linda made some more "Cocktail carpets" I brought in a loom donating that turned out to be from the "Missouri Loom Co." and Mark brought in a coke cozy that he wove in double weave.
What a great day in the studio, See you next week! Until then this is Tina, for all

"Cocktail Carpet" has got to be the best new vocab of the month - the year??

Phyllis's hand dyed weft on the hand dyed warp is really nice. So are Linda's cocktail carpets. (Everything is nice, really!)
