Tea Towel/Runner Guild Project is Now Underway!

For those interested in weaving off a tea towel or runner , we'd like to let you know that the Fibres Unlimited Guild project (warped on the smaller guild loom) is underway and now ongoing. Elvi has woven off 60 inches worth of runner and Darlene is now busy working on her tea towels. Darlene has woven off one and is busy working on her second one. Those who have expressed an interest in this, Gloria, Ann, Gabrielle and Judith (is there anyone else we've missed??) please keep in touch to find out when it's your turn. The warp is a neutral cream colour. Please bring your own weft for the project. Probably 2/8 is a good choice but, of course, you can weave with anything you like. When you have finished your project, please speak to Gloria about how much each of you owes for the warp and who you should pay.
If you're interested in weaving on a guild project in the future (the big Woolhouse loom is also being warped) try to attend the Fibres Unlimited get-together on Monday, February 2nd at 1 p.m. This is the day of the meeting. It's a great opportunity to spend a enjoyable afternoon with your guild friends, go out for supper with them, and attend the meeting all in a single trip! That's definitely a cool "act of green."
Happy Weaving!JG
