Bob is in his last year of teaching- and especially as he is marking exams at the moment- he can’t wait for retirement. A very Happy New Year.

Inside, written on viewer’s right, “Dear Mary, I’ve just heard that you have had to have a session in the hospital this fall. I hope you are feeling more comfortable by now. Our guild has just had our annual sale. The figures seem to be about the same as last year - not growing but not dropping either. As you may know the HWSDA conference will be in Fairview this year - a very long way for the people in the south of the province to go. Marg and I are scheduled to teach 2 short dying classes at Olds this summer. Unfortunately they are the same time as Convergence so they may not run. Take care, Love Eileen Hett”. Printed in pencil underneath noter “E 14-#13-95” . Also written in pencil on the top of back of card “Eileen Hett”

Description
An off-white card with an oval-shaped cutout window that displays a piece of red and white cotton weaving. The top three designs are woven with white thread and resemble chain loops; the four middle designs are woven with white thread into elongated diamond shapes; and the bottom three designs, done in white thread, are a repeat of the top three, and resemble chain loops. The paper is folded in three parts. The first piece is folded over and glued; it encases the rectangular piece of woven fabric that appears as an oval shape on the front. There is a light grey ring (0.20cm) 0.50cm from the cutout area. When the card is opened, on viewer’s right, there is a calligraphic script greeting of “Merry Christmas”, and underneath it is signed in longhand, with a ball-point pen “Eileen and Bob Hett”. On the viewer’s left written in longhand with a ball-point pen: “Hello Mary, Our guild has had a traumatic few months. In July we were notified by the city that we had to vacate our home - because the roof was about to collapse. And the worse news was that, since the city archives wanted our space we couldn’t return once repairs were made. In this economy there is nothing large enough for us and our” it continues on the back of the card “equipment that we can afford. The result is that the study groups and classes are spread all over the city. We have recently found two possibilities - and everyone has their fingers crossed.”

Description
An off-white card with an oval-shaped cutout window that displays a piece of green and white cotton weaving using an advanced twill multi-harness. The designs are woven with white thread and resemble elongated diamond shapes, or because it’s a Christmas card, it could be evergreens right side up and upside down. The paper is folded in three parts. The first piece is folded over and glued; it encases the rectangular piece of woven fabric that appears as an oval shape on the front. There is a light sand/beige ring around the opening (0.20cm) 0.50cm from the cutout area. When the card is opened, on viewer’s right, there is a calligraphic printed greeting of “Merry Christmas and a Very Happy New Year”, and underneath it is signed in longhand, with a ball-point pen “Eileen and Bob Hett”. On the viewer’s left, written in longhand with a ball-point pen: “Hello Mary, The card is an advancing twill, the result of a study our More than 4 group did last year. This year we chose one profile, and we are all weaving samples using different weave structures. I’m doing a 8 shaft boulevard. Hope you are well.”
