Yesterday I got a call asking about the Tucson Fiber Show in April. This Fiber Show is "Fibers Through Time", "Connections to the Past", and it is a show and conference presented by Arizona Federation of Spinners and Weavers. They do this every other year and the last conference was in Coolidge, Arizona in 2006.
"We will celebrate our
by sharing old traditions including historic patterns in the center pieces and scarves, and learning more about the history of fibers grown in our area from our keynote speaker, Dr. Glenna Dean, as she talks with us about the Archeology of Cotton. Please join us in learning more about our crafts and their connections to the past and be inspired to stretch our abilities and imaginations to plan for future endeavors", writes Elaine Ross, President.
