The Weaver's Dance

On a loom that whispers, with shuttles that fly
And bobbins that chatter as the hours go by
I'll not lay in one thread of mere chance
As I work in the motion of the weaver's dance.

Intermountain Weavers Conference....Here I come!


I am packed, trailer is loaded and I'm ready to go enjoy the many treasures of Durango, Colorado and Fort Lewis College where this event will be held. This photo above is from the last IWC as it is commonly called.

I have been using so many hours on contract work that I don't have as full a booth...it's not overflowing this time, but it is FULL!

I do mean FULL! I'll have handwoven yardage, stoles, scarves, Raggy Cat Pin Cushions and Fabric Flower Pins. I've got lots of Stanley's fabric (below) that will end up in fall and winter jackets, if not bought outright. Once this fabric is gone, it's gone, as Stanley stands empty today waiting to make stoles, I think. I want to write a new draft of 12-Harness Bronson Lace with bunches of itty bitty flowers....it should be fun.

Below Stanley's fabrics lay This-N-That's which continue to be popular! Most are on a rack!
I'll also have information about The TAFA List and Las Aranas Spinners & Weavers Guild which is centered in Albuquerque,New Mexico, though members are all over the state.

I hope that you can attend IWC. It's got great instructors and learning opportunities and the vendor hall is just wonderful. Might I see you there? If not, I send out to you Miles and Miles of Smiles, Cat B.
