This month's TFAC Events
Drop ins are a great time to come by the TFAC, check out materials and socialize with other weavers! All members are welcome to come use the resources at the Center. You don't need to reserve anything in advance, just drop by. They are usually held at regular times on Tuesday and Saturday afternoons, but upcoming ones are listed below. You can always check out the full schedule of future and past drop ins on the Calendar page.
- Tuesday, February 12, 1:00-4:00 Drop-in with Marion Flint hosting. Play time or serious-as-can-be time. However you view learning come do it at drop-in! Making cards for MAFA is an ongoing hands on activity through February.
- Thursday, February 14 ❤️ ❤️❤️ Happy Valentine's Day from the guild that loves and appreciates you!
- Saturday, February 16, 1:00-4:00 Drop-in with Lori Rhodes hosting. Come to read, learn, talk, show what you're working on or make cards. Marion Flint is assisting in making 200 cards with fabric embellishment for the goody bags that are distributed at the MAFA convention.

*Ongoing throughout February at TFAC drop-ins Marion Flint is spearheading the making of greeting cards to be embellished and sent to MAFA for their goody bags.
Hi weavers, dyers, felters and spinners. Come help make pretty fiber embellished greeting cards as our Triangle Weavers Guild's contribution to the MAFA goody bag items. Every participant in The Week-end Workshop Conference receives a goody bag of items produced by many member guilds. This year our contribution will be a handmade card blank (no wording), but beautiful because the design will use fabric or fiber samples (bring your own or use what is supplied). Please come join in the fun on the indicated Tuesdays or Saturdays drop -ins during the next few months. I would love to complete 200 cards to take to the MAFA general meeting for our donation to what appears to be a tremendous conference June 27-30 in Millersville PA. Check out mafafiber.org to view the course descriptions , the instructor lists and the full three and a half days of immersion in your favorite fibercraft. Marion Flint |
