Greetings to all who have
expressed interest in Judith MacKenzie McCuin's San
Francisco classes in March 2008.
Here is the line up
3 day weaving workshop at
Point Bonita Lighthouse in the Marin Headlands
Monday March 17 -
Wednesday March 19
This is the second weaving workshop that Judith
has taught in the San Francisco area. As many of you
know - in addition to her expertise in spinning, Judith
is a master weaver. Last year we began this series
with warping our looms. The skill level in the class
ranged from beginner (me) to very experienced weavers.
We all walked away with homework in the form of sample
gamps to weave and bring back this year. This year
the focus will be drafting. This class is part of an ongoing
weaving series that meets annually with Judith to build our weaving skills.
New students are welcome to join in the fun. This is a
class for multi harness weaving so you must have access
to at least a 4 harness table loom fro the class.
This year's Class will be held at the Point Bonita
Lighthouse in the Golden Gate National Recreation Area.
We can arrive on Sunday evening so we are ready to start
early on Monday morning and the retreat will go until
end of the day on Wednesday. The cost for class includes
class, lodging and food and there will be a small
additional materials fee.
Cost $450 plus materials. Covers class, class space,
food and lodging.$100 deposit at time of sign up
2 Day Silk Retreat at Point
Bonita Lighthouse in the Marin Headlands
Friday evening March 14 -
Sunday March 16
Silk Silk Silk!
The location for the retreat is lovely - We will meet at
the YMCA camp at Point Bonita Lighthouse. The stay at
Point Bonita includes our use of the class space, dorm
style rooms and (from everything I hear ) fabulous food.
The camp is an old Army facility when I went to see the
camp the group in residence at the time was a large
group of quilters from all over the country. Like us
they varied in age and physical ability. I met several
of the women and all said it was quite comfortable and
this was their 29th year of quilting at Point Bonita!
While we spin and knit we will enjoy the the services of
a terrific chef who is a graduate of the California
Culinary Academy. The staff is committed to handling any
dietary requests - including but not limited to
vegetarian and vegan diets.
The 3 day retreat and class will
begin on Friday morning, March 30. Class will finish up
on Sunday evening but we have our rooms and meals until
Monday morning.

food and lodging. $100 deposit at the time
