Rug
Tapestry Study Group Minutes
January 17, 2015
January 17, 2015
Present: Jan Tooker, Cheryl Rennick, Judy Lutgen, Mary
Howell, Linda Carlson, Shelda Baylor
Theo Mooreman class will start October 3 and run for 4
weeks from 9:00 -3:00, and will be limited to 9 participants. Sign-up sheet is
posted. Because of the need for 2 looms for each participant, we will need to
have projects finished on studio looms as much as possible especially looms
with 8 harnesses. TAKE NOTE OF THIS!!!
You will need 2 weights of linen warp, 8/5 and 8/2.
Wool weft of your choosing, but you will need to make sure the size of the yarn
is consistent throughout all layers of your piece. There is some wool available
at the Studio.
Jan will provide some guidance with your design so that
you will be able to learn several techniques for different effects.
Cost: Studio members $50, Guild-only members $75,
non-members $100.
Pieces for show:
How many know what they’re going to make (rug vs tapestry)?
Several.
How many have started? A few.
Anyone finished with a piece? Mary and Catherine have
tapestries done.
Who is anticipating showing?
Questions for The Lux Center:
In order to schedule our show, do we need to show them
the actual pieces, or just photos? Do we need to show them all, or a
representation? Jan will be talking to them and will get back to us at the next
meeting.
Next meeting February 21 at 1:00 p.m. Bring your
specific ideas for the piece(s) you’re making for the show. Bring pictures of
the piece(s) on the loom if you’ve already started, or of the piece(s) if it’s
finished.
