Call for Fabric! Weaving Action ... in action!

It is that transitional time of the year when we prepare for the winter and the celebrations it holds.

Loop of the Loom has collaborated with the "Carter Burden Center for Aging" in last holiday season and we are ready to do it again!
We feel it is fundamental to take the SAORI spirit of giving and receiving in meaningful ways to the community around us. The SAORI Weaving community participates with hand woven and crafted gifts that are included on a gift bag offered to these house bound senior citizens.

Last year we made hanging holders that were greatly appreciated. This year we are asking for your Weaving Action contributions of woven fabric for this purpose or for your leftover pieces of fabric to assemble another original SAORI creation.

Carol, an assiduous contributor to our Weaving Action seasonal community giving, an artist and a thoughtful weaver is ahead of the game! Last month Carol brought us a bag with two long colorful strips of cloth for the purpose! THANK YOU CAROL!
This is a part of her message to Yukako. "I know what you mean about the love in the xmas weavings. I did most of the weaving during the storm (Hurricane Irene) and the power outage and I kept thinking of the people I was weaving for, thinking how terrible to be alone during a time like that, especially if they're elderly and disabled."

Let us know if you would like to participate. Looping along, Weaving we go!
