Our weavers gathering for January was a rather large group , hosted at fellow weavers, Katherine's lovely restored farmhouse. My weaving contribution was the final bamboo m's and o's scarves off the loom, leaving me only a few days to weave something for a group show at Viva Gallery. My idea for an image transfer [...]
So, although it was a small and perhaps foolhardy group to brave the icy road conditions, we sure had a good time at our December weavers gathering. Bonnie's home was so warm and inviting, it was a pleasure to sit by the fire on such a dreary day.We met a new weaver; Barb who drove [...]
While the November winds have blown winter in a little faster than I am mentally prepared for, our weavers group enjoyed our newest weaver friend, Judith's, sunlight filled home. All of our homes, I am sure reflect a lot about who we are, and Judith's was so welcoming and filled with art (alot of it [...]
Tomatillos from Barbs garden Barb's newest rep weave warp Well it seems that I am a little behind in my blog posts. So here is a whirlwind tour of our October gathering at Barbs house. Barbs beautiful rep weave warp is probably a finished rug now; so I can't wait to see it. Kathy shared the felted [...]
So how did the fiber fair that our 2nd Monday weavers group sponsored, turn out? Well, first we froze our butts off; oh wait that was last. First Elin and her husband Bob agreed to host the fair at what I consider the most beautiful ridge top farm around. Then we were fortunate in having [...]
It wouldn't be summer, without a lazy day, sitting on the porch at Barb and Harry's home; which is exactly what our weavers group did for our 2nd Monday gathering. Lots of projects to share, laughter and of course great food. Barb is as inspired of a cook as she is a weaver. I'm still [...]
Our weavers group recently shared a beautiful summer day at Olga's lovely country home. I can't think of a better way to spend a summer day, than enjoying fiber friends while surrounded by lush gardens, great food and calming prairie vistas. Thanks Olga for sharing your home so generously with us. Your home is such [...]
Our recent weavers gathering was so lovely; with spring in evidence everywhere. Too many pictures screaming to be taken so this post is more picture heavy than most. Makes me want to go back soon. That is if I survive the fiber fair Nan and I are at tomorrow and Sunday. If you are up [...]
What with the weather one minute having me cheer the robins and the start of spring and the next getting my longjohns back out for a 10 degree F morning walk, I was very thankful for our weavers gathering at my friend Carole's house.I don't know of a home that more reflects the artful, family [...]
Our monthly gathering of weavers and fiber lovers met at Barb's this month. I am posting this late enough, that I have forgotten who brought what and just know it was a joyful day with lots of great food and piles of fabric to keep me inspired. I am always struck by the fact that when [...]
