The second week in August is a busy time here in Nevada County. The local fiber guild is responsible for setting up and managing the woven, spun, felted and handspun made entries. Members of Not 2 Square did their part and entered their fiber exhibits. Wendy-Marie entered two scarves and a shawl.
The top scarf was woven and then enhanced with fabric paint and a stencil to create the leaf pattern.
Wendy-Marie's shawl was designed using a musical score and assigning colors and widths of stripes based on the music.
Sue V entered a number of items. There were two sets of napkins (top pictures) and two towels (bottom pictures).
This is just the beginning of the entries. More to come in later posts.

Her Nevada County Inspiration piece was designed with local river salmon in mind.
Sue also wove a scarf using the "snake skin" pattern featured in Handwoven magazine.

Wow - what a lot of lovely pieces for this first recap of the fair entries. Wish I could have visited the wool room this year.
Maybe next year.
