    • Kalihi-Pālama Public Library, 1325 Kalihi St., Honolulu, HI 96817

    This Month's Topic: This month we will have a presentation by several Hui members who recently attended a Japanese Textile Workshop with Bryan Whitehead in Japan. Bryan grows and processes indigo using traditional methods. Those dyes are used on silk he raises and reels or spins, and is then woven on traditional looms. We will get an overview of the workshop and opportunity to see what participants made. 

    From 2:00-3:00 pm the event is a general meeting for Hui members. From 3:00-5:00 pm the event is open to the public. Please join us!


       

    Fiber Fundays are a time to share fiber arts travel experiences, projects, stories, and show and tell. (Goodies may also be involved.) The first hour of the meeting is a time for brief Hui business and/or announcements and for members to share work - yes, please bring your lovely, whimsical, creative fiber crafts to show off! There are refreshments, before opening to the public for a presentation or activity at 3. Feel free to bring a beverage in a closed container.

    Is there a certain topic you want to learn more about? Please contact Barbara Long to schedule a presentation, make topic suggestions, or ask questions. We look forward to getting together to share and learn!
