The Finishing Line: Three Rugs Completed, Two to Go

posted in Workshops |

Window Rock, AZ A record three students have completed their pieces at our class and two others are in the final stages of weaving.

First finished was Diane Craig, who completed her piece yesterday morning.  Mary Falzone finished yesterday afternoon.  You can see them both posing with Jennie and their finished pieces in the picture below

Gloria Thompson completed her piece just a couple of minutes ago.  Gloria’s design was inspired by some of the Rock Art weavings done in the Two Grey Hills/Burnham area.  Gloria did a wonderful job with her first weaving!

I’ll post more finished rug pictures as two more students complete work this afternoon.    We also have a new group of five students starting today, and they are completing the warping process right now.

    kathleen higham: I'd like to join with you when it starts again!

    Mary Walker: The Munsell color system was developed to provide a precise numeric description of color based on hue, value or lightness and color purity (referred to by Munsell as chroma). This precision is helpful in mixing dyes to achieve the desired results. There is a Munsell study group on Weavolution.com, but I was too busy teaching right now to join. I hope there will be enough people interested to do another group later this year. If you haven't already joined Weavolution, I'd encourage you to do it. The current study group is called the Munsell+dye study group.

    Emmy: I'm curious now. What is a Munsell group? Thanks Emmy
