MARCH Right In!



  What a great way to start off the day!  Cut that warp of placemats off of that loom!!!! 
  Laura then got busy serging the raw edges for the hems.  She has her work cut out for her at home this week.  Then she needs to start thinking about her next project!













  Betsy is trying to decide what to do for her next project.  She and Marie were working on drawdowns on Marie's tablet this morning.  Strickler is always a good resource!
  (Note Pat's handwoven vest in the background!)


 
  Spring is full of beautiful colors, and these three ladies set the stage today.  Margi, Peggy and Alyce are at different stages of their projects:  Margi is trying out different colors and treadling for her mug rugs.  Peggy is finishing her threading, while Alyce is weaving away on the Pup.












  Bonnie, Sharon and Liz kept the back row humming along.  Shawls, scarves and placemats are being woven on these looms.









 Tina provided technical assistance today for Carl's loom.  The cords needed some attention!










   Carol is often called in for technical help!  Susan is warping her loom for her second warp.






  Carol got called in for more help this afternoon.  Carl is still having trouble with this loom:  it seems I put a thread through the heddle on shaft 5 when it should be on #4!  (I'll be fixing that next week!!!)
  Pearl is still weaving on her lace warp.











   Remember a couple of weeks ago when Ray was hanging the rugs in the stair well????  Here they are!  Patty and I got a chance to admire the workmanship.










  After doing some sample weaving, Marilyn is ready to get going on her placemat warp.














  Linda finished her "temperature" project on her Cricket.  Each color change represents the temperature of each day in the year she was born.  We decided it would be fun to compare the temperature range of another year.
  Great job, Linda!!!!!

I'm sure we'll see lots of temperature changes this month.....March can be fickle in East Tennessee!

Happy Weaving!
