"Late but in earnest."
I have a love/hate relationship with technology. But, the pictures finally downloaded, so here's the update on happenings with the Tuesday Weavers!
Upon arrival yesterday, I found Pat outside with the warping board digging out the remains of a dowel that had broken off the board. Christine and Charlotte were observing her progress.
Christine is Marie's daughter, who is visiting from Florida. She has heard so much about the Tuesday Weavers and wanted to check out the place!
Patty was working on a mystery warp. She added some additional threads and made use of the angel wings to hold the extra cross. Weaving often involves a lot of "problem solving."
Shirley and Marilyn are winding on a dishtowel warp. This will be the ever popular "Friendship" towel design.
Since Betsy was isolated in the back corner, she was weaving without her mask. That's a single layer of warp left on the beam!
Liz is threading a scarf warp from our dear friend Bonnie. This is truly a special project.
Pat worked her magic on the warping board, and she got back to the loom to weave some more on her rug. She's using up some heavy chenille with her cloth weft to weave this rug.
Mary is back to weaving the white placemats. They are always a hit at the Foothills sale (and we are starting to prepare for that!)
Victoria has finished threading her loom, and Carol is showing her how we lash on the warp. She started weaving before we left for the day!
Laura has taken over the black warp on the Norwood loom. It's always fun to see what colors weavers use to weave the placemats.
Such a busy place! Diane is seated at the table planning her next warp.
Now it's time to wind the warp! (This will be her second project: towels!)
Pat shared her scarf that she wove at home using up some of her stash.
Sharon joined us for lunch, and she brought a delightful surprise for Charlotte: thrums from the stash of Tom Knisely! Tom gave them to Sharon when she took his class (way back before the pandemic!)
Weaving is a wonderful community of folks!
Happy Weaving!
