Please send newsletter materials, especially items of our doings and program notes for the CWG spring season.

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.

If you find weaving foibles showing up, send something for our 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.

We are continuing our spotlight biographies of our members. It would be lovely if profiles of our newest members were included. Consider writing this up.

Please consider sharing about your favorite weaving books–your trusted standbys and new-to-you inspiring titles.

Here’s our mission.

BOTANICAL

In May, Study group gathered for the finale of the year and harnessed the concept for our coming year Study topic, Botanical. pastedGraphic.png

Whether you choose:

a fiber (i.e., hemp, cotton, bamboo, linen,)

a dye (i.e., indigo, madder)

a subject (i.e., weave a pictorial, tapestry, a color flow as in botanical subject)

a botanical object to weave (i.e., a three-dimensional object maybe, or felt?)

or a combination

pastedGraphic_1.png

The choices are vast, there being almost no restrictions. Using imaginations and all the resources we have available to us; this should prove to be a wonderful project. And exceedingly interesting for our exhibit that will be on display in April.

Bring your current work, questions, show and tell.
