June Dye Day Photos!

Last Thursday and Friday, Carol hosted a Dye Day at the Weaving Center. From the photos I can tell that Mark, Judith, Phyllis and Patty were there. If there were others Carol will let me know and I will add their names. The Tuesday before that they made sure that all of the warps and skeins were pre washed so that they were ready to go into the mordent first thing. Then they let the colors fly!

The warps were then wrapped and waiting until this morning when the rinsing and spinning out the excess dye happened. Susan and Kris did a lot of that this morning and I think that Karin helped this afternoon.

While all the rinsing was happening I saw a warp that Shirley was putting on her loom. It was a warp that Carol had wound. Then Joycelyn cut her towel warp off of her loom!

Now for Show and Tell! Charlotte was here today and she showed off some napkins and placemats she wove at home. Charlotte has a natural gift for color and texture and she uses all of our loom waste to make beautiful things. Patty brought in a lovely wrap that reminded us of a butterfly, you can be sure there were several of us that asked for the specific measurements so that we can try it on our own!

That is all for today, until next week this is Tina, for all
