6, 2005 ALERT:
Weavers who might be considering entries to the April CHT Conference,
This just in; we have a lovely group of UT fashion students who would
be delighted to model your creations during the CHT Fashion Show. In
other words, send in your best and most original fashions and expect
to answer all sorts of questions about construction without having to
trip down the runway
yourself. Our Fashion show coordinator, Letitia Rogers, has graciously
extended the Fashion Show deadline another week, to Friday,
March 11.
Don't be shy, help us enchant and instruct another generation of fiber
friends! We need your creations! Contact Letitia at letitia@sheepthrills.biz.
The Fashion Show and Members’ Exhibit are important parts of the

storage, transportation, and handling of entries, but CHT cannot be
