November 16, 2013 Guild Meeting

The SVH Guild will meet on Saturday, November 16th, at the R&M Yarns Fiber Art Studio in Georgetown, TN.  The meeting will begin at 9:00 a.m. with "meet & greet" followed by a business meeting where we will elect 2014 officers and set some goals for the year.

For our program, everyone is asked to participate in a Challenge!  Go through your yarn stash and bring a selection suitable for weaving.  Everyone will choose an armful of yarns that they will use in a unique weaving project.  A photograph will be taken of you with your Challenge Stash as a "Before" photo and when you're finished (deadline TBA), we will take another photo. 

So get a few things to share and be ready for the First Challenge Project of the SVH Guild!

No Meeting in October

Please note that the Group voted NOT to have an October Guild meeting.  Instead, some will be demonstrating different weaving techniques at the Cleveland Apple Festival in downtown Cleveland, TN on Saturday, October 19th, at the R&M Yarns booth.  Check with Phyllis if you'd like to be included in the demonstrations...space is limited.

Our next regular Guild meeting will be Saturday, November 16th at the usual location.

September 21, 2013 Guild Meeting

Do you have a great TIP or SHORTCUT that you would like to share with other weavers?  If so, bring that information to the next guild meeting.  Everyone is encouraged to participate.  Also, if you are having problems with a certain aspect of weaving, be ready to share that with the group and let's see if we can come up with a solution.

• 9:00 a.m. "Meet & Greet".... bring your own coffee, danish, etc.
• 9:30 a.m. Short Business Meeting
• 10:00 a.m. Program
• 11:00 a.m. "Show & Tell"  (times are approximations)

"Show & Tell" is a time to share finished woven items with the group for inspiration and motivation.  We all need that from time to time!
