Guild meeting

Well I've phoned up and checked the times and date and so tomorrow morning I am off to the far side of Truro to my firs ever Weavers, spinners and dyers guild. (Think that's what it's called Embarassed )
So wish me luck. Hope someone can start me off with my fleece to either drop spindle it or prepare it to weave on my peg loom. Fingers crossed Wink I'll let you all know how I get on. Smile
Kathy

Oh thats exciting, I'm sure you'll have a great time. Very Happy

Have you tried your peg loom yet?
TheGirlsMum

No not yet Kathy, OH had to adjust the holes for the warp thread first they weren't drilled properly, first excuse. Second, I'm not real confident about the fleece Ive got so hoping somebody tomorrow might help me with a big boot up the rear end.
Kathy

I'm sure you'll get lots of help, where did you get your fleece and do you know what kind it is?
TheGirlsMum

Had a reallygood time to day, met some really helpful people. Had my first ever go at spinning and got lots of differing advice on peg weaving. Speak more tomorow Laughing
TheGirlsMum

Kathy, the fleece was a washed variety that OH bought on ebay, no variety given, I can't wait until I can hire a wheel from the guild to have a practice on, haven't told OH yet tho!
