NOTE: April meeting has been moved to the third Thursday to accommodate workshop and Easter scheduling. 7-7:30 is social time. Program starts promptly at 7:30. Program: Denise Kovnat : Once Upon a Warp: From the Loom to the Runway. This talk looks at Kovnat’s weaving journey from concept to completion of a garment, followed by a fashion show. Every year for the past decade, she has set herself a challenge: Weave a garment (or two) that will be juried into the Convergence fashion show, part of the biannual conference of the Handweavers’ Guild of America. Since 2008, she has been able to meet the challenge- but there’s more to the story, with lots of ups and downs along the way! Anyone who weaves of creates fabric or designs garments will relate.
Denise is teaching a workshop for the guild Apr 17-19.
