EGLFC 2025 1With many thanks to our Fiber Angels, we met our fund-raising goal of $6,000 which has reduced

our fees for 2025. Additionally, we are grateful to the MidAtlantic Fiber Association for their

generous grant of $3,200. Thank you all! Unlike many other fiber conferences, our conference fee

includes workshops, lodging, meals and all special events!

It’s all part of a terrific time, and it only happens once every two years!

Registration begins April 1st online.

CWG Spring Newsletter deadline is March 1

February 22, 2025 By Nancy Leave a Comment

Spring newsletter deadline is really coming–March 1.  Have these wintry months provided you plenty of cozy time with the loom, wheel, or weaving reveries?

Please send newsletter materials, especially items of winter’s doings and program notes for the upcoming CWG events. A President’s letter, program notes, study group reveries, 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.

And there’s the ever ready version of Penelope’s Perils that you might share.

Contribute directly to Nancy or to newsletter@cuyahogaweaversguild.com

Cancelation of CWG field trip

November 20, 2024 By Nancy Leave a Comment

After looking at the weather forecast for our field trip to the American Coverlet Museum, we will be rescheduling for sometime in the spring.
I think we could get there is good shape, but coming home in the dark through the Allegheny mountains with wind and snow is not something I want to attempt. Jean and I take that route when we visit our son and his family in Virginia.
Aside from my seeing the coverlets now on display, part of what I had been looking forward was seeing how each of you responded when you saw them. I do hope that we can reschedule the trip and have a good turnout.
I realize that this means we will not have a Guild meeting in November, but we did have a very productive study group earlier this month, and we are all lined up for our Holiday Luncheon on Thursday December 19 at Jessie Adler’s house, starting at 11:30. Please bring a dish to share, and any show and tell you may have.

CWG November meeting–a survey of interest

October 22, 2024 By Nancy Leave a Comment

Hi All

I got through to speak to someone at the coverlet museum today.

I have a “tentative” date setup with them for Thursday November 21. The normal date for our monthly meeting. We would drive over in the morning and drive back in the afternoon. It is about a 3.5 hour drive.
Please respond to let me know if you would like to attend  and if you would be willing to drive. Jean and I will drive and we can fit two others in our car. We would take the toll road so you would need an EZ pass and I expect the guild to cover the mileage.
I think I included everyone in this email who was at the meeting last week.
Please respond quickly to Bob at robert.breitzmann@gmail.com
