The studio is loaded with all sorts of woven wonders, handspun yarns,,
super books of knowledge, screened porch surround the studio,
purple martins are swooping and diving around the gourd houses..
fiber braids ready for spinning
balls of lovely dyed wool, alpaca, llama
There are looms warped ready for weaving
towels
Marion came prepared to weave braid for
state conference goodie bags
Now for show and tell from the members--
Rosemary bought this coverlet at a garage sale
One side
the other side--we all guessed at the name of the pattern--will
need to do some research
Rosemary is very resourceful with her scraps--
she has used her over bits, dyed in the sun,
to make small felted balls for decoration.
Fern had taken the recent workshop given by the guild
on double weave and these were her
loom products
interesting and unusual
Barbara began a new adventure in her weaving skills--
tapestry! This is one of her first attempts--
really good work for a beginner.
The back of the tapestry.
She also had lovely dishtowel that she wove with
8/2 cotton in purple hues--lovely to look at,
delightful to touch
Dottie loves to 'hook' and she's good!
This is her latest creation..
These are the 'tongues' attached to the sheep--
look at all those little stitches--all by hand!
Penny had two woven rugs to show--these are all
wool weft and cotton warp
The other rug is handspun llama, core spun =, as weft.
Perfect to stand on--bare foot!!
A great day was enjoyed in the country with my
fellow weaver friends!
