Some Weavers at Sturt

I thought I would do a little roundup of some of the weaving that´s been going on around the Sturt Weaving Workshop. There has been some fantastic pieces produced lately!
 Lilly and Carol both making floor rugs. Carol´s has a loom controlled square throughout it.
 April wearing her fantastic double weave tencel and wool scarf.
 Helen´s blind, tho this photo doesn´t do it justice so I´ĺl try to take some more later. It has a very cool blue jelly yarn in it that is incredible in the sun.
 This is Maureen´s stunning hanging. Double  weave pockets with silk and monofilament and very finely cut pieces of wood which as translucent with the sun behind it.

 This is Judy weaving her crammed and spaced scarf. Judy has been a Sturt weaver since 1979.
 Ann is nearly finished her beautifully graphic Bauhaus inspired tapestry.
 These are just a few of Libby´s tapestries of her grandchildren´s drawings - so fun!



And this is one of my after school student´s pencil cases. It´s amazing what a trip to Vinnie´s can inspire!

So that´s just a little part of what´s been happening up here lately. There´s lots more so come up some time and have a play!
