2010 in general and Wool Weekend 5/6th June

This summer I won't be feltmaking at the Kentwell Hall reenactment. I'll be working in the house making subtleties for "The Family". So I guess there won't be many, if any posts for this blog this year.

Last weekend I was, however at Wool Weekend with the Regional International Feltmakers Association group and the Lavenham Guild of Weavers, Spinners and Dyers. Alison, a Guild member, kindly brought along her wool combs, Widow Meg showed us how to use them and Alison donated them to Kentwell. When you see what they are like you will know why they are in safe keeping rather than lying around.
