Our 2nd Monday weavers gathering had a perfect fall day in the perfect location at Elin and Bob's beautiful ridgetop farm. We  enjoyed what will probably be our final time to enjoy sitting outside; drinking coffee, along with lots of political discussion and there is always some fun show and tell.  I was happy to [...]
Our 2nd Monday gathering was at my house this month. It seemed like a good time to host as I am between art fair craziness and it has been such a lovely spring for flowers, if I squint my eyes to not see any of the weeds. Also my house really needed cleaning. It was [...]
After a two year hiatus the Winding Roads Art Tour had a very successful return on June 4-5. I was fortunate to share the home of my friend, jeweler Nan Marshall to display my handwovens and jewelry. It was fun to share our work with so many people, some from as far away as the [...]
It was pretty great heading to Barbs house for our 2nd Monday weavers gathering last Monday.  First the drive down through our  rolling  hills of the driftless region and then down along the Wisconsin River was lovely, even without any seeing much evidence of spring time green colors yet.  It was just great to get [...]
Last Monday our weavers group gathered again at Elin's new studio.  We were a small but apparently very productive group.  As always seeing the amazing textiles that these talented women create has me itching to get busy on my loom. Jewelry making has been  a lovely distraction in preparation for VIVA Gallery's February Jewelry and [...]
I find myself behind on posts for our weavers gathering, partly because until just recently we had the internet from hell and it was pretty torturous to try to post. Â There is also a slight lazy factor but oh well, I'm just going with blaming the internet. Â But now we have entered the modern age [...]
Since I was in crazy weaving production mode due to the upcoming Driftless Area Art Festival I almost didn't attend our monthly weavers gathering at Anne Marie's house. Â I'm sure glad that I went, it was just the break from weaving that I needed and now that the art fair is sadly canceled again this [...]
One more step to normalcy was hosting this months weavers group and it was such a beautiful day, made more so by sharing it with such talented and inspirational women. Â Another plus was that this is the cleanest my house has been since before the pandemic. Â That says a lot about my housekeeping priorities. These [...]
Well we waited a long time, but our May, 2nd Monday weavers gathering was in person, outside on a lovely spring day, maskless and joyful; at Elin and Bob's lovely country farmhouse. We are kicking Zoom to the curb although it sure made staying connected during covid a great option. Elin showed us her new [...]
Well it has been a hot minute since I last posted about our monthly 2nd Monday weavers gatherings. Â Our last get together in person was a lovely and surprisingly warm day in November at Kathy's lovely home in the valley. Â We thought we would have to gather outside around a fire but didn't need that [...]
