Dog Daze of Summer

 
  With the August heat outside, being in the Studio was the perfect place to be!!!  We still have folks on vacation, so it wasn't as busy as it normally is around here.

  This happy quartet of weavers jumped in to wind on Peggy's warp of huck placemats.  Alyce, Helen and Pearl made sure the warp went on smoothly with just the right amount of tension.  (This will be Peggy's first warp on a floor loom!)



 



  Jaid is at the end of her first warp, which means she gets to decide what her next project will be.  So many possibilities!!!!
  BTW....Jaid brought in her very first weaving project to share:  a panel woven on a cardboard loom in elementary school!  Precious!!!!




 


 
  Shirley and Bonnie were able to work on their projects, too.  Shirley is getting really close to the end!





    Christy is back with us and right back to work making panels for Carl's rugs.  She's got this down to a fine science. 
  Carl got started on another rug today, so that tub of strips will get used before you know it!












  Linda's baby blanket was a big hit at the baby shower recently (her grandson is due in October!!!)  For now, she's busy with the green dish towels at her loom.




  
Aw shucks....I meant to get a close up of Frieda's pattern on this scarf.  I'll try to remember next week!


 









  I love the colors of Anna's dyed warp!  They just seem to flow from one color to another.

  
  Tina is back to work on her black & white walker bags.  Marie was just checking on the progress.


 











  Ray wove a couple of rows this afternoon to check on his threading.  This morning, he threaded the fishing line through the left side, which will be closed on this double weave.  We are all excited about this project.

  The Studio is a cool place to spend these hot, humid days.....join us!

Happy Weaving!
