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.
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
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.
April 3-10, 2023
During this week, please make sure Patty has your wonderful weavings for our show.
