July Show and Tell

Good numbers turned up for our July meeting and it was great to see yet more new members keen to get weaving. Joan had returned from her travels with textile treasures to show us and later gave us a talk on indigo with many samples and pictures from her previous overseas trips. Photos of that to come, but in the meantime here is the show and tell.

Kathryn had brought baby blankets last month and asked for advice on how to finish them. Here they are, washed and finished with generous satin bindings. Well done Kathryn.

Also by Kathryn, a creative piece achieved with multi-coloured wrappings.

Betty has been reading up on the differences between tartans and plaids. She made these plaid cushion covers in 2/2 twill.

Rose's alpaca scarf has a red warp and navy weft in a small twill pattern. Extra navy ends were added in to the fringe.

Nancy brought along her latest knitting and her Scottish cousin to model it.

Another of Nancy's creations, this time in Touch mohair.
