NOBO Handweavers

This Friday, December 9th, 6 to 9 PM, is our first Fiber Artists Showcase at A Loom with a View featuring the exceptionally fine works of three local artisans. Margaret Russell’s handwoven natural fiber textiles are must-touch beautiful. Kim Sheehan’s captivating felt art is astounding in its attention to detail and color. And the whimsical handknit designs by Cheryl Kubat of Urgent Need Handwork are stylishly delightful. Please plan to stop in. All the showcase pieces will be for sale. This is your chance to purchase a truly special gift.

Sue Jones is having a garage sale today, 9-2. She
is at 15 Block Drive, Brentwood, NH.

She is selling some of her stash, and a spool rack her Dad built!

She adds:

Mostly wool yarns, some cones some small balls and a whole box of fine yarns that I have not even had time to explore. Ray and I just hauled a funky little set of drawers. 6 drawers side by side with a makeshift formica like top that works well in a studio. also a rain barrel a few tools, misc housewares, a very old oak desk, a tv cabinet etc. I also have a computer desk that is too heavy to lug in one piece, still holding up this computer.

Her number is 603-642-6620.

I had a great time at Thursday’s meeting. What a fun group you guys are!
