Final Push

 


  This is what I saw when I got to the Center today!

The weavers among us recognize skeins of yarn dripping in the sunlight.  Today we were washing the skeins in preparation for Dye Day on Thursday.




   Inside you can see Marie and Patty winding more skeins.  

Marie is winding "popcorn" yarn to be dyed for weft.  Patty is winding two warps for scarves.




  Meanwhile, Carol is going from one area to another just keeping up with all that is going on in the studio.

(Bonnie is still saying she's not a fan of summer-winter weave!)



  Our Ladies decided to eat lunch at their looms today....table space is hard to come by!  What a happy bunch!


  

  Lou Ann is really happy with Linda's scarf that she wove!  She bought it for her daughter's birthday!  That worked out very nicely for both of them.





  Jocelyn always has several "irons in the fire."  Today she is off to meet with a workman.  Don't they know we are busy on Tuesdays????





  Sharon found a notebook of weaving notes back on the shelf.  We soon realized that it was one of Carl's notes on the name placemats that he wove several years ago.  What a treasure!





  Betsy was busy changing out the floating selvedge for the next part of her warp.




Liz and Ruth are smack dab in the middle of all this action.  Yet, they just keep weaving!

  Barbara provides moral support!


  Shari is weaving a lovely blue-green pattern on the mug rug warp (or as Patty calls it the cocktail carpet!)  We found out today that we need to have some of our items ready by the end of April!

Better get busy!!!


I'll post some pictures of Dye Day if I have them.  Stay tuned!

Happy Weaving!
