The Midnight Shuttles had their annual Christmas gathering last Thursday at member Kathryn's home. Thank you for hosting us another year! Besides good food, a social time was spent together. They made little craft tree ornaments. As photographer and craft organizer, Donna said: "It was fun weaving the Christmas trees over wooden stir sticks and using an assortment of yarns, raffia and decorations" πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„ It was a gathering of friends, which is what Christmas is all about.... Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas!

πŸŽ„πŸŽ„πŸŽ„There were β€œhands on” demonstrations and craft making projects at the Campbell River Museum " Festival of the Trees" this past Sunday. It was well attended and we had some very enthusiastic people of all ages trying out weaving on the loom with Joyce’s instructions, Jeanelle encouraged people to weave on the inkle loom, Edith was busy with some spinners, Katherine’s relaxed spinning was fascinating to watch and crafters. (Be sure to see the video of her in action in a previous post). The trees were a delight as well.... Christmas is on the way for sure! πŸŽπŸŽ„ Photo credit: Donna

We had our guild meeting last Wednesday and while we were a smaller gathering due to the time of year and other commitments, there was some wonderful show and tell!

6 ice dyed scarves by Katherine; 6 kitchen towels by Susan; a fine houndstooth heck by Lynn and I believe the Christmas runner / towel is hers as well! There's a whole lot of weaving going on! πŸŽ„πŸŽ Photo credit: Donna

A collage of photos taken from this past Wednesday pot luck here in Campbell River. The Midnight Shuttles invited the Woolgathers of Courtenay to come and join us for a social time and a lunch together. The get together went very well with a large group coming from the Courtenay guild.
It was a delightful time, socializing, sharing guild history and discussing the future of our guilds. The inspiring show and tells were of great interest and the delicious potluck luncheon our members provided was enjoyed by all. We are hoping to have get togethers again in 2026.

I was browsing through my Instagram today and was pleasantly suprised to spot a familiar face of fellow guild member Debbie who was attending a weaving course. Held by Stacey Harvey- Brown at her studio in France! We will look forward to hearing all about it sometime soon....

It was a stormy blustery day yesterday as members came to the meeting. The Business meeting portion covered a lot of topics (as most do at the start of a new guild year) and we had a lovely refreshment break and show and tell , with more than a few laughs!

There was a Teddy Bear Picnic this past Wednesday, August 27th at Haig Brown House. 🐻 The young people had fun bringing their teddies or whatever stuffed animal they had brought to the picnic, to our display table, to have bows of colourful ribbons wrapped on their stuffy, and each were given a little bouquet of flowers. We had a nice display of our natural dyeing and Edith was kept busy with youngsters interested in how to use the spinning wheel. It was a fun day with happy children.
