1 March 2011 Issue 193 Anchorage Weavers & Spinners Guild Next Meeting: March 12, 2011, 10:00 at Anchorage Museum March Program: SOAR and More By Nancy Boardman In the program for our March meeting, AWSG member, Karen Williams will present "SOAR and more..." Karen will share previous SOARs (Spin-Off Autumn Retreats) with us in a slide show and describe this unique event. She ll also talk briefly about other retreats and fiber festivals. Her experiences will illustrate how these outside opportunities can inform and inspire us -- and may well tempt you to SOAR in the future! The program starts at 11 AM, immediately following the 10 AM business meeting of the AWSG Guild. April 9th Program: Dress Rehearsal for the April 10th AWSG Fashion show! Fashion Show Invitations Weaver. Pam has published many articles and has been featured in several weaving magazines. She has participated in numerous exhibitions solo, invitational, and juried, as well as receiving many selected commissions. Pam offers three, five day or two week residencies or she can design a special session to meet the needs of our guild. An intensive session can be designed for the different weaving levels of participants. Her workshops are limited to 15 participants and materials are included with the class fee. At this time we are seeking interest for her workshop and plan to bring Pam up sometime in early At the guild meeting on March 12 there will be an interest sheet on the back table for you to sign. Pam s website: Two of Pam s stunning tapestries (From her website) by Mary Janis Please come to the March 12 Guild meeting to pick up postcards advertising the "Threads 2011" fashion show on April 10. The Museum will be providing the Guild with 1000 postcards, or about 10 each to distribute to friends and family. The Museum is bending over backward for us, so let's do our part and get those postcard invitations out there! Possible Workshop for 2012 by Sherry Rogers We are considering bringing Pam Patrie, renowned tapestry weaver, to teach a workshop for the Anchorage guild. Pam s training includes time at the Portland Museum Art School, Independent studies of the Gobelin Technique in France, Independent Study of Aubusson Technique and time spent at the San Francisco Tapestry Workshop as Associate 1
2 Praise for Rigid Heddle Class and Pictures! By Mary Werner I ve resisted learning to weave for a long time. There wasn t enough time for spinning, knitting, quilting, beading, etc., much less taking up another time and equipment-intensive activity. However, I received a rigid heddle loom from a friend who was downsizing at about the time Dolores Roguszka announced that she would be teaching a rigid heddle weaving class. It was a great class and opened my eyes to a new appreciation for cloth. I have already wound warps for five different projects! Surprisingly, a rigid heddle loom is affordable, portable, and doesn t take up nearly as much space as the floor looms I ve admired in friends weaving studios. There s room in the second session of the weaving class in March, so please take this opportunity to learn a new skill with new friends.

Be sure to tag these scarves with your name and care instructions for the model. The scarves should reflect your best work our effort to thank professional models for donating their time to our fashion show. Atrium Sale Nancy Boardman, Coordinator for the Atrium Sale, circulated a volunteer signup sheet at the last guild meeting but she is still seeking help in various capacities including setup and running of the sale. Please contact Nancy at nboardman@acsalaska.net. 4
5 Fashion Show Continued Demonstrations in Atrium Coordinator for atrium demonstrations, Tom Hobbs, is looking for guild members willing to provide intriguing demonstrations of bobbin lace weaving, loom weaving, spinning and dyeing displays. Please contact Tom at Dress Forms Bonnie Tisler is working diligently on securing dress forms for our fashion show garments at the museum. The museum has asked that we display all garments from the fashion show in the atrium after the show. If you have not yet volunteered your dress form please contact Bonnie at We will be asking many of you to wear one of your garments, after the show, while demonstrating or helping with the sale in the atrium. If you have any questions concerning the Fashion Show, Atrium Sale or Demonstrations April 10, please contact Sherry Rogers at or Annita Magee at Fashion Show Atrium Sale at the Museum by Nancy Boardman Just a reminder that if you wish to submit items for sale for the AWSG Atrium Sale, in conjunction with the ASWSG Fashion Show, you may bring your items to the March 12th or the April 9th ASWSG Guild meetings. Hint: earlier is better! You may also contact the Atrium Sales Coordinator Nancy Boardman at or nboardman@acsalaska.net to arrange a time to drop off items to her. Items may also be dropped off at the homes of Dolores Roguszka (south Anchorage ), Sherry Rogers ( Eagle River ) or Connie Bingham (Mat Su Valley). Remember to have your items listed on the inventory sheet and double-tagged as specified in the Fashion Show Information Sheet on the AWSG website, located at Remember, items submitted for sale must meet the following criteria: The fiber content of woven and knit items may be handspun yarn or commercial yarn. The crafter may choose to weave, hand-knit, crochet or machine knit their item using hand-spun yarn. Hand-spun yarn, as the final product in itself, may also be offered for sale. Please offer enough quantity so that a knitter or weaver may have enough to complete a project. Yarn purchased commercially may be used either in a hand-woven article, or as trim on a hand-woven article. Non-woven, non-knit items such as surface design, felting, beading, etc. must be an original design and must be handmade. If you have a lot of the same kind or color of item (e.g. scarves, towels, etc), the sales staff may choose not to display all of your items on the tables for sale. As your items sell, we will put more items out for display. Thank you to everyone who has volunteered so far. A few more volunteers are still needed to assist with the design and set up of the Atrium sale venue on the afternoon of April 9th, for sales assistance during the sale on April 10th, and for break down of the sale venue following the sale, the evening of April 10th. This will be an ambitious display opportunity for AWSG, so we need creative types to assist. Yes, these will be two long days for us, but if we all work together, it will go faster and more smoothly. Please contact Nancy to volunteer if you have not already done so, at or nboardman@acsalaska.net. 5
6 Atrium Sale Continued In addition, if you are able to lend any of the following items for the sale, please contact Nancy : Garment racks (please remind me of who you are) An elegant stand-alone mirror Quilt racks or other types of display racks for displaying rugs, linens and scarves. A pick up truck or large van (maybe with some strong teenagers) to move our grid walls from the storage unit to the Museum on April 9 and back on April 10. If you have previously offered your dress form for use during the sale, coordinate with Bonnie Tisler and remember you are responsible for transporting your dress form to and from the Museum. If you need help getting it from your car to the Museum, we will help you. And, yes, we will sell items via credit card at the sale State Fair Information by Myler Almandinger I ll be at the next meeting to talk about this year s state fair held August 25 to September 5. Here are dates you should know if you re planning to enter items in the fair: Entry days for Anchorage are: Monday and Tuesday, August 8th and 9th; 11:00 to 7:00 Pick-up dates are: Friday, September 9; 11:00 to 7:00, and Saturday, September 10, 10:00 to 6:00. The entry location is the same as last year at the Boys and Girls Club in Mountain View: 315 N Price Street. Judging day will be August 14th, except for fleece, which will be judged on August 21st. If you won t be available for these dates, Beverly Bronner can collect your items and deliver them to the fair. After the fair, I will get your items from her and return them to you at the September Guild meeting. Tom will be doing signups for demos again, and I want it packed like last year. People were so shocked to learn that so many people still do our crafts. We also have so many foreign visitors at the fair, and it s nice to hear their comments. These visitors also film us and take pictures and put them on the internet. It is exciting to know we can touch so many places in this big world from our little fiber arts display and demonstrations. Without you this cannot be accomplished. Let s show our artistic touch to one and all! Scholarship Funds How About the NW Weavers Conference? by Dolores Roguszka Bequest scholarship funds are available for, but not limited to, workshops, retreats, conferences, fiber related classes for active members of the Guild. Active members are defined as full dues paying members. Scholarships are intended to enhance AWSG member s education in the fiber arts. Monies available for each scholarship will vary. Financial need is not a consideration. Scholarship recipients are expected to share with the Guild the knowledge gained, or serve the Guild in some other way, within one year of receipt of the scholarship. The AWSG Board is open to suggestions as to how that knowledge is shared. Applications may be made any time of the year and are presented in writing to the Board of Directors for approval. Deadline for submission is the AWSG Board meeting prior to the event. Additional information is found on the Guild website. With the NW Weavers Conference coming up May 30-June 5, perhaps a scholarship might make it possible for you to attend. Think about it! 6
7 The Most Wonderful Chemo Cap Contest by Dolores Roguszka Helpful information for contest entries: 1. Two submissions per person. Open to all Guild members. 2. Each entry MUST have a tag fastened INSIDE the hat with the name of the person entering, phone number, address, mailing address, fiber content, and laundry instructions, and must include the words Contest Entry. 3. Material used MUST be very soft. 4. Hats submitted must be either hand or machine washable. No dry cleaning options. 5. Hats may be for a man, woman or child. 6. We have noted that knitted hats are generally softer than crocheted, even from the same fiber. If crocheted, larger hooks should be used. 7. Seams must be carefully finished, as they could be an irritant for sensitive heads. Circular needles are recommended for knitted hats. 8. If you need patterns many are available on the Internet. Type into your search engine the words chemo cap patterns and take a look at what is available. We use a goodly number of patterns from the Head Huggers site. The November/December 2006 issue of Handwoven includes a hat pattern for hand-woven fabrics. We have hard copies available of patterns at the Third Thursday knitting sessions. Find a pattern that makes a snug-fitting cap that can stretch comfortably without binding. It should cover the hairline. 9. We are looking for The Most Wonderful Chemo Cap. You may aim for a hat that is beautiful, fun, zany, unusual, or any combination thereof. Let your imagination soar! Embroidery or other embellishments are encouraged. 10. The committee will disqualify any hats submitted that do not adhere to these guidelines. 11. All entries MUST be submitted no later than the first of May to Dolores Roguszka ( or dande80@alaska.net) Entries can be mailed to Dolores Roguszka, 4400 O Malley Road, Anchorage, AK but must be received prior to the deadline date. 12. The maker of the winning entries will receive prizes of $15.00, $10.00, and $5.00 for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd placings. One additional prize will be awarded for The Most Popular Pink hat submitted. A HELPFUL HINT; Even though we suggest the use of acrylics (for easiest care) for our chemo caps, it may be helpful to know that in general, guild members tend to vote for natural fibers. If you are seriously competitive, keep that in mind when choosing fibers for your entry! If your intent is just to provide some comfort for a cancer patient, use the fiber you feel will be the most comfortable. Third Thursday Knitting by Dolores Roguszka Every month, on the Third Thursday, we meet to knit, enjoy refreshments and each other. Every Guild member is invited to join us from one to four at my house. Our next session will be on March 17th. If you have Fashion Show items to turn in, you may do so on the afternoon of March 17. Deadline for those entries is March 18, so feel free to get them in a day early! Bring along your knitting projects or other handwork. We have donated yarns and patterns available for chemo caps. There is still time to create that special hat for the Chemo Cap Contest. Deadline for contest hats is May 1. Contest entries will be used for table décor at the May potluck and winners will be chosen at the potluck. If you d like an reminder of each of these Thursday afternoon get-togethers, send me an e- mail and I ll add your name to my current reminder list. If you have questions or need directions contact me at dande80@alaska.net or call Come join us for the afternoon, or any part of it. 7
