Tune in to the Long Thread Podcast to learn more about the Big Weave!

In the May 2026 episode, Caroline is joined by Donna Johnson of the Whidbey Weavers Guild, who coordinates volunteers for the guild’s sample weaving, and Anita Osterhaug, who connected the project with the publisher and has been part of the technical steering committee. Together they talk about the logistical undertaking of standardizing hundreds of samples across dozens of weavers, the technical decisions involved in updating the book, and what it has felt like to be part of the next chapter of something this important.

Listen in to hear why the green book has never gone out of fashion, what surprised the weavers as they worked through structures they’d never tried before, and what Marguerite Porter Davison’s granddaughter hopes she would think of the whole endeavor.
