    Local Cloth’s Blue Ridge Blanket Project

    The Blue Ridge Blankets project provides a local market for our region's fiber farmers, gives fair compensation to our weavers and dyers, and offers local consumers an opportunity to purchase a beautiful locally sourced product. Judi Jetson, the project director and one of Local Cloth's founders, will discuss how the desire to make fabric from local materials led to this ambitious project. The Blue Ridge Blankets are intended to be an ongoing and self-sustaining enterprise, and she's looking for more farmers, dyers and weavers to get involved.
