2010 KAWS

Wichita Weavers, Spinners & Dyers Guild Posted on by

The Kansas Alliance of Weavers and Spinners’ (KAWS) annual conference was held in Emporia this weekend; unfortunately, many Wichita guild members were unable to attend.  But we were well represented by those who did make the trip, and they also made sure our guild table looked its best!

The theme for this year’s guild table exhibit (and competition!) was “Yarn Cocktails”.   Several members contributed fiber interpretations of specific cocktails.  This is a view of the entire table:


Here’s a non-alcoholic “Tequila Sunrise”…

… and one more citrus-y closeup:

We don’t yet know how our table fared in the competition, but had fun seeing everyone’s ideas!

On the agenda – 05/08/2010
