On April 25 2015,<b style="font-size: x-large; font-style: italic;"> </b><b style="font-style: italic;">frittelli</b> <b>& LOCKWOOD</b> participated in the 6th annual Electric City Couture Fashion Show: Makers Movement at the Universal Preservation Hall in Saratoga Springs NY. As a benefit for the ongoing restoration of Universal Preservation Hall, the event drew enthusiastic attendees from all over the region. Joining other capital area designers, <b style="font-style: italic;">frittelli</b> <b>& LOCKWOOD </b>presented their newest collection of handwoven men's and women's wear and accessories.<br />

Along with <b style="font-style: italic;">frittelli</b> <b>& LOCKWOOD, </b>participating designers included ekologic, Vilma Mare Baltic Style, Marika Charles, and Gamakache Black. Each design company outfitted 10-12 models with each designer's collection accompanied by specially-produced music and unique lighting. After the fashion show, designers displayed clothing from the runway in a "pop-up shop" so customers could try on and order pieces for themselves. It was a sold out show and a great success!<br />

<tr><td style="text-align: center;">In preparation for our trade show at New York Gift next month, I'm designing a couple new style scarves for fall. Here are some process shots showing multiple colorways side by side to work out warp and fill formats and colors on smaller size swatches before weaving full-size scarf samples. This is the kind of creative work that I wish I had more time for....it's so much fun to play with color and switch out yarns to get unusual color crossings. After the swatch blanket is complete, we all examine it and decide which swatches work best to make up the new collection.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgY-51wyKYWLYnHyK5Dj7ksW-Rrh7HmxnNyu7QKS6BoeH5qNVWFRm_YD_2s-QGkUvUmoxWTqXkaoVN8fcL2P7fH8JUkevfLPeMUaYnLZpb4_VTrYuRuulfbMib-rtVXUdOUM6BPqOasmaHj/s1600/DSCN7357.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgY-51wyKYWLYnHyK5Dj7ksW-Rrh7HmxnNyu7QKS6BoeH5qNVWFRm_YD_2s-QGkUvUmoxWTqXkaoVN8fcL2P7fH8JUkevfLPeMUaYnLZpb4_VTrYuRuulfbMib-rtVXUdOUM6BPqOasmaHj/s320/DSCN7357.JPG" width="320" /></a></td></tr>

For the first time since we opened our shop in Saratoga, we offered weaving lessons. Students were able to choose their own projects and materials, based on previous experience. They produced scarves, table runners and mats, a small throw, and fabric yardage- impressive! We taught students each process from warping to dressing a loom, weaving and finishing. As one of our students exclaimed at the end of her session, " I will never look at fabric the same way again!"<br />
<br />
Fall production for our retail shows and our wholesale accounts is in full swing. Here is a listing of the shows we will be exhibiting at this fall. We will keep our shop open normal hours as well. Hope to see you this fall in our booth at a show near you or at the shop wrapping up in our handwoven clothing!<br />

Here is a pile of scarves being "unfringed." The roll has been woven as long yardage, then cut and sewn into individual scarves. To make the decorative fringe at the bottom, the weft yarn is pulled out or unwoven for a couple inches till it's caught in the stitches. <br />

Here's our new line of bamboo stripes in multi-pattern weaves that form stripes of leno, an open-stitch weave and herringbone, a pointed twill weave. Bamboo fiber takes dye very well and we love the radiance of these stripes. <br />

We always strive to be a zero-waste studio, and it's always fun to come up with new products using our handwoven "scraps." These are a series of kits assembled and ready to be sewn into pouch bags.<br />
We have 2 fine craft shows coming up soon. The first is the American Craft Council show in Baltimore which takes place February 20-24. The first 2 days are wholesale to the trade only and the weekend is open to the public. Visit craftcouncil.org/baltimore for more info.<br />
March 22-24 will find us at the Paradise City Arts Show in Marlborough MA at the Royal Plaza Trade Center. Visit paradisecityarts.com for more info.<br />

We just got word that our studio has been chosen as one of 100 finalists (out of 2000 entries) in the American Made Awards sponsored by Martha Stewart.! If we get enough votes between now and September 24, we could win some major national exposure as well as $10,000! <br />
We would be so grateful if you could take a couple minutes every day for the next 2 weeks, visit this website and place your vote.<br />

July is the month we usually get serious about fall scarf production. We've collected orders from shops and galleries since February, entered the data in our computer system, and printed out inventory reports specifying how many of each style is needed by each account and by when. In the "old" days (80's and very early 90's) I would chart the orders on huge pieces of graph paper.... I'm so glad the computer compiles all this data for us effortlessly now...so we can concentrate on designing and weaving!<br />
<br />
After the warps come off the loom, we launder them to give them a lived-in softness. Here they're drying on our railing on a breezy July day. When dry, the long warps will be cut into individual scarves, steam-pressed, sewn, unfringed, labeled, then boxed up and sent to specialty shops around the country.Ceciliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17865065263345947644noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8396820416716164283.post-32006502897783219092012-04-24T07:57:00.000-04:002012-04-24T07:59:38.691-04:00Smithsonian Craft Show April 2012<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<span style="font-size: large;">Our week in Washington was wonderful! We spent the week of April 17th in the glorious National Building Museum at the one and only Smithsonian Craft Show.

This month we focused on new fabric design and construction. The looms get "dressed" and "undressed" repeatedly as we change warp colors, draws (the order in which yarn is threaded through the heddles on the loom) and sett (how densely or loosely the warp threads are placed together.) Dressing the loom can be very tedious, especially when it's an all day process involving 500 different ends (threads) each threaded through an individual heddle on the loom. Good to have some help or at least some warm fur to keep me company! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

We have the perfect accessory for cool summer evenings- a lacy shawl handwoven of bamboo fiber in a luscious pink and taupe combination. I was pressing it and realized the reason we all love this color so- it reminds us of neapolitan ice cream, where the strawberry and chocolate and vanilla all melt together soft and creamy. Happy Summer everyone!Ceciliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17865065263345947644noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8396820416716164283.post-3038864414411724302011-06-08T14:26:00.003-04:002011-06-08T14:33:20.023-04:00Arts Fest June 10-12, 2011!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgowAfVPW405uusg1ZDN4hpKYNwDbXHS9cZVUd_rpYnybYGnc09ieZonEKmKblRKWFZHdZLWANxsEoi0tvWIxiPXP9HYxSne0IhDDWKDwGhxCBRMtWWlleYccAgRtl5NmPxVOh7vd0Mvz8A/s1600/fiber+pears+small.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgowAfVPW405uusg1ZDN4hpKYNwDbXHS9cZVUd_rpYnybYGnc09ieZonEKmKblRKWFZHdZLWANxsEoi0tvWIxiPXP9HYxSne0IhDDWKDwGhxCBRMtWWlleYccAgRtl5NmPxVOh7vd0Mvz8A/s200/fiber+pears+small.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5615917164916530594" border="0" /></a><br />Crocheted Pears and Felted Tomatoes<br />almost good enough to eat.... but a little<br />too high in fiber!<br /><br />We are part of ARTS FEST this weekend June 10-12 at our shop in the Beekman Street Arts District. An open house/studio, visiting fiber artists, and weaving demonstrations will take place Saturday 10-8 pm and Sunday 12-4 pm. The galleries in our Arts District will display special pieces for ARTS FEAST- handmade functional art in tableware and table coverings. Textile Studio will be adding fun fiber food too- all handmade by American artisans using knit, crochet, and felting techniques.Ceciliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17865065263345947644noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8396820416716164283.post-34069429299974701082011-03-20T22:07:00.001-04:002011-03-20T22:10:42.383-04:00Spring 2011<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjmUW6ibLF9Ou5isUZZn833keq4gdWyVFYpOcJdU26KZcNjMeydYiio1eo6n7y5xn3926SHG3inRK4j2aswivUqtaHj9ArWu97eil_EqJ-QplPGqOVbxi_Jc5gpnbdMLR3aF8jgNRzeraNM/s1600/bamboo+shawl+and+tote.jpg"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 149px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjmUW6ibLF9Ou5isUZZn833keq4gdWyVFYpOcJdU26KZcNjMeydYiio1eo6n7y5xn3926SHG3inRK4j2aswivUqtaHj9ArWu97eil_EqJ-QplPGqOVbxi_Jc5gpnbdMLR3aF8jgNRzeraNM/s200/bamboo+shawl+and+tote.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5586349629898666754" border="0" /></a><br /><br />SPRING SHOW SCHEDULE 2011<br /><br />March 25-27 Craft Boston, World Trade Center, Boston, MA (retail) www.craftboston.org<br /><br />April 1-3 Craft New York, 7W Building, 34th St & Fifth Ave, New York, NY (retail) www.artrider.com<br /><br />April 14-15 Invitational Trunk Show, Harman Center for the Arts, 610 F St NW, 9am-9pm.<br />https://sites.google.com/site/invitationaltrunkshowCeciliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17865065263345947644noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8396820416716164283.post-75557567518989500302011-02-27T12:48:00.005-05:002011-02-27T13:02:29.457-05:00Baltimore Feb 2011- American Craft Council Fair<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxTjM2UGAAlKA_V03IVHK0C2rUx7TJrm9J5L71wRaKbv3OnMBSVryPATmHwQjrTFYnXFtDrZw5AN8fr6UZcRiat1N-83T9sFKWd9v6bcwObD89tVR7ZA3xrOkvI23vsAtaEqsd29QYijrA/s1600/DSCN2177.JPG"><img style="cursor: pointer; width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhxTjM2UGAAlKA_V03IVHK0C2rUx7TJrm9J5L71wRaKbv3OnMBSVryPATmHwQjrTFYnXFtDrZw5AN8fr6UZcRiat1N-83T9sFKWd9v6bcwObD89tVR7ZA3xrOkvI23vsAtaEqsd29QYijrA/s200/DSCN2177.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5578429078086001394" border="0" /></a><br />Our menswear collection- neckties, scarves, and our new line of asymmetrical pieced vests.

Jeri, Morgan, and I wove warp after warp, changing fills for each new colorway, experimenting with a new merino/tencel yarn, and playing with pattern formats and sizes. It was a challenge to produce several new scarf lines in a month. Here's one collection at the show featuring parts of 3 different collections all in bamboo fiber.Ceciliahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17865065263345947644noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8396820416716164283.post-87185143885330436862010-12-30T08:57:00.001-05:002010-12-30T08:57:37.680-05:00Our best to you and yours for a joyful new year... looking forward to seeing you soon at a show or at the shop! 143 Grand Ave at Beekman Street, Saratoga Springs NY.
