Eeek, September 1 gives very short notice. Please send newsletter materials, especially items of summer doings and program notes for the upcoming CWG year. A President’s letter, program notes, study group ideas and member’s profile will all be welcome.
No doubt that photos of your projects, a new technique or yarn you are trying, or a weaving reference book you have discovered will be welcome. Or even an essay about your weaving adventures, discoveries, or compatriots. Perhaps a quandary that you would like help with.
In earlier discussions about the foibles of our weaving work might fit into a new column based on Penelope’s weaving tactics——you know, the part where she weaves and unweaves. We all have stories about our version so please send yours.

Hello CWG
Here’s an update on the CWG Dye Day planned for Thursday August 17th. Please RSVP to robert.breitzmann@gmail.com if you plan to attend.
We will start at 10AM and dye till 3PM. Come when you can and leave when you must. I’ve got the dyes, but bring your own fiber or purchase a blank to play with for $.50 each. I will be showing how I paint a warp. Bring a brown bag lunch if you like. If it rains we will set up in the garage and adapt as needed.
All the natural dyes except Indigo require a mordant. If you have soda ash at home, please soak your fibers overnight beforehand. If not, you can put everything to soak when you arrive. The fiber reactive dyes will have the mordant already added. All of the natural dyes will work on protein or cellulose fibers but mordants may change for the black walnut.
I learned a lot last year and hope several changes will improve our results.
This year we will have the following natural dye pots:
Black Walnut for a nice brown.
Indigo for blue.
Cochineal for blue/red.
Madder makes orange/red.
Logwood for light purple.
Pomegranate to make green/yellow.
Please RSVP if you plan to attend.
