Part Two was on our normal meeting night which we had initially cancelled in favour of the Richmond trip but as so few were able to go on the trip some of us gathered at Bobbin Cottage as usual.
Betsy had quietly and methodically worked through the collapse weaving course and had her samples beautifully mounted in a folder with the appropriate paperwork. Well done Betsy . . . excellent job.
Jen was not too sure of her shoulder scarf at first but gained confidence when we all genuinely admired it. The general consensus was that it just needs one big button or brooch.
Tricia has been scrumbling again. This phone cover is a follow-on from the fantastic handbag she has exhibited. During the evening she manufactured almost half of another one.
Rose had woven two scarves in different variations of huck lace using alpaca/silk yarn.
And this is one of her linen table runners.
Thanks to Chris for these photos.
At the Guild meeting a couple of days later Judy showed her Deflected Double Weave wrap woven in 20/2 silk. Here it is on the loom.
And here is the finished product. So elegant!
Thanks for the pics Judy.
A bonus for those present was to have a preliminary look at some "Arizona Highway" magazines with amazing photographs of land forms, wildlife, wildflowers etc with colour schemes we don't see in our own green and pleasant land. There is a lot of inspiration to be gained from these magazines and we look forward to delving into them in the future.
