In Carolina’s weaving practice she makes monuments as memory signifiers, and vessels into which the past is poured, molded or reshaped (woven, unraveled, or stretched).

Maggie Putnam Studio is a one-woman creative office that crafts refined brand systems for conscious, intentional brands. And for the last seven months, we have been working on redesigning our GIST Yarn and Weave Podcast brand identity and rebuilding our website to better reflect the company we’ve become, and to better share our podcast episodes, and to better serve our community. 
Maggie has led that process for us, working closely with our team to learn who we are as a company and translating those conversations into a redesigned brand identity that we are proud to have launched just last week. We learned so much working with Maggie and we thought it would be interesting to share a glimpse of the design process with our listeners and customers.

      <description><![CDATA[Hello, I hope all is well. 

Before I get into this week’s episode I would like to start out by expressing my excitement and gratitude for the recent election results.  I’m glad we voted and I’m excited about the changes that are to come! 

While we are on the topic of the future I’m excited to introduce you all to a new project that we are working on at Gist. 

As part of my new role at Gist as director of partnerships and collaborations, I’m working on our very first Open Call for Gist Yarn Pattern Designers. 

The theme of our first Open Call for Designers is Hope. 

This past year has been hard for so many, and filled with a yearning for better days ahead. As we look with optimism towards the future, we are seeking designs inspired by what makes you feel hopeful. 

Maybe it’s the hope of gathering with friends and family, easy hugs in shared spaces. The hope that is present in every handmade gift - an offering of love and time. The hope for a better world, safe and just and healthy for everyone. The hope in a freshly wound warp, the promise of quiet moments passing shuttles through your hands. 

Whatever is bringing you to hope these days, we are excited to see how it inspires your designs with our yarn. 

If your design is selected for publication, Gist Yarn will pay you $350-$450 depending on the complexity of the project to weave and write the pattern. Gist Yarn will purchase exclusive rights to publish the pattern for one year, and you will retain rights to also sell the pattern from your own platform after one year. 

If your design is selected, you will be given free yarn to weave the sample project. Woven samples will be mailed to Gist Yarn for photography and then will be returned to you. 


Gist yarn will continue to provide access to our free patterns on our website however patterns produced in collaboration with Designers via our open call will be available for purchase on our website. 
If your interested in submitting a proposal with can sign up for email updates via www.gistyarn.com/designers. 

Look out for our announcement in January 2021

Thank you for your wonderful support, until next time HAPPY WEAVING!

      <description><![CDATA[In this week’s episode, LaChaun is speaking with Chawne Kimber an African-American mathematician and quilter, known for expressing her political activism in her quilts. In Chawne’s quilts, she interprets traditional forms in an improvisational style using vibrant modern colors of commercially available American-farmed, processed, and woven cotton. Some of her designs are geometric romps that emphasize the complex forms of negative space that naturally arise, while others utilize unusually small scaling to exaggerate shapes and tonal sequences. She uses the quilt medium to respond to current race-related social justice issues, and make minimal two-tone appliquéd self-portraits in a street art style.

      <description><![CDATA[This week on the podcast, I'm excited to be talking to the team at Muezart Yarn. Muezart is a small business in Northeast India that focuses on making and selling handspun, naturally dyed Eri Silk to weavers, knitters, crocheters, and other fiber artists. I first found out about them about a year ago when they mailed a sample card to our studio, and I was absolutely captivated by the rich and vibrant colors they created from plants. Over several zoom calls with their team over the past year, I learned much more about their processes and the ways they work with their communities, and have been looking forward to sharing their stories with our podcast audience for many months.

One thing to note, this episode was recorded a few months ago, before COVID-19 had hit India. We waited to air this episode at their request because of the lockdown in India, so that they could be ready to ship yarn to interested listeners. They are now able to ship again, and they are a wonderful group of people, making beautiful yarn, which they ship worldwide - so if this episode sparks your interest, definitely go check out their website and support their shop.

      <description><![CDATA[Today on the podcast, LaChaun and I are talking about issues of racism and White Supremacy, and the ways they are deeply embedded into our textile industries and communities. This country and the world and all of us are reacting to the murder of George Floyd and so many other Black people at the hands of the police. White folks are being called upon to deeply examine and work at rooting out the racism in ourselves and our families and communities and it is work I am committed to staying focused on in my personal life and in this business. 
LaChaun and I have had a few phone conversations recently about how we want to bring these conversations onto the podcast and into our weaving community, and we decided on our last one that we should record one of these conversations to share transparently with our listeners what we have been thinking about. I am deeply appreciative of LaChaun's interest in and willingness to talk about this so openly on this platform. 

If you are new to our podcast, I encourage you to listen to two earlier episodes where LaChaun shares her story and journey as an artist and a farmer, and a number of her other episodes where she explores the history and present realities of farming and processing cotton and indigo in the United States - you can see all episodes of the podcast at www.gistyarn.com/podcast.
