2nd Monday at Barb’s
Last Monday was our 2nd Monday weavers gathering and it was a perfect day for a fall drive to our friend Barb B's house. Â As always Barb and her home both are so inviting. Â How can a house not be that is filled with spinning wheels and spindles and fiber galore. Â Sigh... such a good place to hole up for [...]
of labyrinth’s and cyanotypes
This month's 2nd Monday gathering was in town at Judiths's home.

I missed seeing everyone but it sure was great to relax with [...]

I'm always amazed that she manages to get down from that ridge in the winter. Several of our group had [...]

The pond with stone walkways and walls and gorgeous plantings make me want to come back with my sketchbook. Â I took a gazillion pictures as every vista [...]
2nd Monday gathering at Janet’s

Â I hadn't realized how long Jan has been weaving but when she brought out a whole bin of projects I was pretty much in awe. Few things make me happier than a pile of handwoven fabric. I am trying to weave my own pile [...]
