More from the County Fair

Jeanne, Eileen and Betsy are our next three entrants to be showcased here.  Jeanne entered two scarves.  One was made starting with a painted warp.  The second used Theo Moorman techniques she learned in a workshop this spring.

Eileen had an indigo-ikat dyed warp that she used for her Nevada County Inspiration entry.  She also entered another shawl, a scarf and yardage this year.

Betsy entered two rugs a towel and an interesting wall hanging using wheat as weft material.  The wall hanging was also inspired by the Theo Moorman technique.

Lots of beautiful items here. I'm really impressed by the Theo Moorman shawl and would love to see it up close. Must have taken a bit of time to weave. Also, Betsy's wall hanging is really neat. Congrats to all the ribbon winners - but I think that all the pieces are really wonderful.

Jeanne did a really nice job on her piece. There were some interesting items that students of the class in March took away with them. Betsy's all hanging was really interesting with the wheat "weft".
