August 18, 2018: This month we will meet at the Unitarian Universalist Church of Indianapolis (UUI - 615 W. 43rd St., Indpls.) for our annual Fiber Fair.  Bring any fibers, weaving tools, storage possibilities, or anything else related to weaving that you do not need and want to give or sell to someone who will use it.  We always find something that we can use. We will have a table set up for sale items that will benefit the Guild, one for things you want to sell personally, and one for items that you just want to see go to someone who will use them. So come to give, take, and go home with new items for your stash.

We will also have an early picnic lunch to close out the summer and to enjoy friendships and weaving conversations, which we sometimes can't fit into the meetings.  This is a pitch-in.  The Guild will provide the main courses, paper supplies and drinks.  Members who's last names start with A - L, please bring sides to share.  Members with last names starting with M - Z, please bring desserts.

UUI is several blocks south of Butler University, five blocks north of 38th Street and between Clarendon Rd. and Byram Ave.    See you then! - CINDY WILSON

April 21, 2018: In April we will have a presentation on what it takes to have good selvedges on handwoven fabrics.  This topic is for beginner and experienced weavers alike, as it takes a while to master.
 
Members are asked to bring their one favorite shuttle and , if it is a boat-type, also bring a well-wound bobbin.  If it is any other type of shuttle, have 4-5 yards of yarn wound.  Fiber and color your choice.
 
Members are encouraged to bring their worst selvedge example, and their best.  There will be opportunity to share after a program of advice and tips and don’ts.
