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.  As always Barb and her home both are so inviting.  How can a house not be that is filled with spinning wheels and spindles and fiber galore.  Sigh... such a good [...]

This month's 2nd Monday gathering was in town at Judiths's home.  We had a lovely afternoon in her gardens and even walked a labyrinth of twigs built by her neighbor modeled after the labyrinth at Chartres cathedral .  Thanks Olga for providing the link to the cathedral here: https://www.cathedrale-chartres.org/en/cathedrale/monument/the-labyrinth/ Equally fun was the light protected [...]

summer shenanigans

Sadly I missed our August weavers gathering at my friend Nan's lovely home.  I heard that it was a large and merry group, and that her risotto was excellent.  Ann fortunately sent me a few pics so that I could have a sense of  how the day went. I missed seeing everyone but it sure [...]

2nd Monday weavers gathering at Anne Maries

By |2023-07-17T01:55:09+00:00July 17th, 2023|2nd Monday, Weavers|0 Comments

A fairly large group of us spent a lovely morning at Anne Marie's peaceful farm.  She is probably only a few miles from me as the crow flies but with the hills and coulee's it was a considerably longer drive. I'm always amazed that she manages to get down from that ridge in the winter. [...]

a perfect summer weavers gathering

This months 2nd Monday weavers gathering was conveniently located at my neighbors house last Monday.  Maureen and Duane have created such a lovely outdoor natural wonderland that I'm surprised they are ever indoors. The pond with stone walkways and walls and gorgeous plantings make me want to come back with my sketchbook.  I took a [...]

2nd Monday gathering at Janet’s

We had the pleasure of gathering at Jan's house for our 2nd Monday weavers get together.  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 [...]

weavers gathering at the coop

We are fortunate in our little town to have the Viroqua Food Cooperative that not only feeds our community but fosters and supports our community in so many ways. Our 2nd Monday weavers group has met at the coop for two of our recent gatherings.  Last Monday my DH's sister Mary Kay brought her weaver [...]

Weavers gathering at Elin’s

I can't think of a better way to spend a "when will it ever be spring" day than surrounded by my fiber friends.  I think everyone felt the same as we had a larger than average group, brave an iffy driving day after a snowfall overnight.  Lots of us have treacherous driveways and I know [...]

Festive 2nd Monday gathering at Denise’s

Our 2nd Monday weavers gathering was in Viroqua at Denise and her partner Bill's new to them house.  It was so fun to see how they have adapted to being townies after living in the country for so long.  As I suspected Denise's sense of style and cozy love of art and textiles will make [...]

Fall gathering at Elin’s

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 [...]
