Lakeshore Fiber Arts Guild Meeting October 17, 2025
Thank you Gargi for taking pictures and adding descriptions while Wendy was gone on a retreat.
Our speaker was guild member, Jane Blacquiere. Jane talked about her fiber arts journey and the 3-day Michigan League of Handweavers' Contemporary Embroidery workshop she took in early June with Jennifer Gould. Jane received an MLH scholarship to take the workshop and brought many of her pieces that she has created.
