Hey!
Someone is turning 93 on Thursday!!!!
Happy Birthday, Carl!!!!
Elsewhere in the studio, Marie was busy checking the threading on a draft while Sharon rethreaded her warp AGAIN! (She is one determined weaver!) Carol is always there for support.
That's Alyce on the right at the table....she needed to add some heddles for her new warp.
Ray did some adjusting on the treadles, then he was ready to weave. I think this is looking very nice!!!!
Convergence will be in Knoxville in 2020, and the Tuesday Weavers are making key rings for the goodie bags. Tina decided to go ahead and get started since we'll need a whole bunch!!! Her first warp salutes the Lady Vols!
Marilyn wanted to learn about weaving on the Inkle Loom, so she was Tina's helper! (I bet she goes home and tries a warp on her own Inkle loom!!!)
The Ladies were missing Ms. Ila today....but they carried on like the troopers they are!!!!
Mary is tied on and ready to start weaving. And, Jaid is weaving away on her red warp.
Remember Bonnie's huck placemat warp? It's history!!! There are eight placemats and a matching table runner on that cloth beam!
Pat is finishing up a scarf warp before she starts on the next bowl cozy warp. That will free up another floor loom for another weaver.
This is Betsy's new and improved placemat warp. That threading error is GONE!
Jocelyn is finishing the third shawl on this warp, but there is still more warp left on the warp beam! Will there be enough for a mobius???? Wait and see!
On Monday, some of the Tuesday Weavers took a road trip to Two Roots Fiber Mill. Ruth Anne wove with us for a short time. She has a lovely herd of alpacas, along with this precious "hembra" cria, Jojo. This baby also gets a bottle, which Betsy was happy to help with. (Look at all those phones getting pictures!!!)
We got the grand tour of the fiber mill to see all the steps in the fiber production. She also has a lovely little gift shop, which became a very popular place to pick up a few gifts. Tina and I left two alpaca fleeces to be processed....I can hardly wait!!!!
How exciting to be greeted by a friendly group of alpacas!
We are already talking about taking another trip to the farm!
Stay
LouAnn
