This month we again met remotely to share show and tell and hear a presentation about the Trailing of the Sheep from Karen Mallum (pictures hopefully coming soon).
For show and tell, Dawn shared some of her recent projects. She has been working with braided and felted roving to create rugs, an (unintentional) cat bed, and some very large slippers that she plans to alter to fit a human-sized foot.
Dawn has of course also been dyeing and fielded a question about invasive buckthorn. She shared this image of roving she has dyed. The leaves are glossy buckthorn and the yellow roving pictured was dyed with those leaves.
Mary finished weaving a baby blanket for her youngest grandchild and has been considering the pros and cons of tying on additional warp to leftover warp on the loom.
Melissa showed off her homegrown flax seeds and discussed the invasive Autumn Olive on her property, wondering whether they have any usefulness as a dye plant.
Denise completed another t-shirt quilt, but says she's ready to take a break from t-shirt quilting for a little while now.
Phyllis has been revisiting a medium that she used to work in and has been creating stick bundles.
We're planning to have another virtual show and tell meeting on December 14th, so stay tuned for Zoom details guild members!
