May Guild Meeting
What:
Huck Lace, by Deanna Baugh
When:
Thursday, May 10, 6:30 p.m.
Where:
South Valley Unitarian Church
Greetings Weavers! Our May meeting will be all about Huck Lace.
Deanna Baugh has graciously agreed to lead our discussion on Huck
Lace weaves. Deanna is so knowledgeable about weaving in general,
and we very grateful to be able to learn from her.
If you have any samples of your own or someone else’s weaving,
please feel free to bring them to the meeting on May 10. It should
prove to be most informative, and who knows? Maybe one of us will
weave up a beautiful lace mug rug or placemat for next month’s
challenge reveal!
Please feel free to bring anything you made in the Fiber Festival
workshops to share during Show and Tell so that we can all learn
from each other.
Happy
weaving, Sonya Campana

On Line Study Group. Now is the time to finish up Lessons #1 and #2. When you have uploaded your drafts for a lesson, send an email to the list commenting on your experience. Lesson #3 will be going on the web site right after the fiber festival. Lesson #3 is about 3- and 4-shaft twills. After seeing all of the wonderful twills this last month, this should be lots of fun. You can start at any point in this study. Just start with the current lesson and go back as time allows. Learning about weaving is not linear -- so you can start anywhere. You need I will put the information on the yahoo list. The introduction assignment will be available there. All of the work is virtual weaving unless you want to actually weave a sample or project. You will participate by uploading wif files to the yahoo group folders, or by uploading a picture of your draft from the screen print if you are using a demo, or by scanning a pencil and paper draft. The drafts do not need to be original and you can use books, etc as you learn about the various structures. The first assignment (the introduction) will be due by January 10th.
Slide Shows, PDF files. Close the little pop up window if Play does not work on your computer.

Guild Challenge
The Guild board made a decision to issue a challenge to the Guild
for the upcoming year. We would like each member to participate by
weaving a placemat or mug rug, and we will have a showing at one of
our meetings late in the spring, probably a potluck luncheon in
June. Further, we are asking experienced weavers to design something
new, and those of us with less experience to use a structure we have
not tried before. It was suggested that we could use our product at
the To Join The Guild's Yahoo! Group Email List: follow these directions.
