Online Weaving Guild
I hope everyone had a lovely Thanksgiving as did Don and I. My new-to-me loom is up and running with a chenille scarf warp begun. There is another small wholesale order to be done within the next couple of weeks. I have the dyeing finished for this project, so it is just getting down to the weaving and finishing.
There seem to be few weaving blogs, but during my searches I have found an interesting weaving site that I'm investigating. www.onlineguildwsd.org.uk It is an online guild of weavers, spinners and dyers which meets over the internet. It was founded in 2002 and is affiliated to the UK Association of Guilds of Weavers, Spinners and Dyers. It connects to a worldwide community of fibre enthusiasts at all levels of expertise which is pretty enticing. There is a fee to join and I'm investigating the easiest method to manage this as the payment must be in pounds. I'll report in on this bit of a stumbling block later. The site has all sorts of interesting links that can be explored freely. There is a list of blogs and also a list of websites, several of which are weaving related. I've just spent an hour having a quick browse through some of these links and some are very interesting. I'll leave you to have the fun of discovering this fabulous link to other weavers worldwide. It's really worth setting aside a little time to travel down this road awhile.
