"The cool thing about the workshops... is that
they create community. A gaggle of creative minds in one place is a powerful [incentive].

We met at a private home in a wonderful, old historic house with a huge, wide porch. |
Lots of cubby spaces to spread our looms. | It helps to have beaufiful weather, and even in February, the warmth and lighting on the porch were perfect. |
For
this group, besides the option of a pre-built frame, weavers chose either the
large shawl size, or the smaller scarf size. | Today we are weavers! | By the end of the day, we'd practiced on 3 weave techniques and gotten a good start on our shawls and scarves. |
One of the first and largest groups, we made full-size shawl frames from scratch. |

There were so many great shots that I made composites to better show the activity. Here we're building frames on the back porch of the gallery. |

Monticello, Fl,
My Studio, December '09 Several in this group opted to do the smaller, scarf-size frames. Much faster to finish. |
Dogs are curious too. |

A
dry, clear, warm winter day... we did the frames outside,then broke
for lunch on the porch.

Any place to lean the frame will work. |
