April 2026

Hello Weavers!

Trees in blossom, tulips budding, and sprouts popping everywhere, – even bunnies on the lawn!  We have heard of snow in the month of April here in Tacoma, but after our surprise Snow Day last month, let’s hope we won’t have another.  The early morning decision to hold our meeting 100% virtually proved to be optimal, with everyone being able to see our speaker, Kathrin Weber, on their own screen.   I certainly enjoyed it and look forward to playing around with dye techniques.

I have finished the weaving my 3 shaft rug, but now must do the braided finishing – still slow!  I’m planning on dyeing a warp to go onto that loom next, probably for towels.  I am also finally weaving on my new AVL loom, still with some problems, but I will have those resolved soon.  

We hope to see everyone at our April 10th meeting to enjoy even MORE color inspiration from Beverly Ash Gilbert, “ Dancing With Color”.  Beverly has an awesome website:  beverlyashgilbert.com

See you soon –

Weave away!

Mimi
