With great sadness we would like inform the friends patrons and partners of Underfoot Weavers that the founder and sole proprietor of Underfoot Weavers, Judy McCardel, has died at the age of 71. Judy was my wife of 51 years and my partner of 55 years. She was the mother of 5 and grandmother of 7. She made her living weaving rugs. Kind generous and compassionate, she was a true matriarch.

Memorial Mass for Judy Arbogast McCardel will be held 10 am Saturday January 13, 2024 at St Luke’s church in Danville OH.
Calling hours will be at the church beginning 9am.
A brief reception will be held in the St Luke’s Community Center immediately following.

Please feel free to share this post.

We leave you with a poem her son Zachary wrote for her as a gift:

So polo Korea needs three rugs by sept18. 300 pair of dark jeans. They have offered to pay a rush fee (no specific how much). But that doesn’t find the jeans or hours needed,

THE TRAIN - At birth we boarded the train and met our parents, and we believe they will always travel by our side. As time goes by, other people will board the train; and they will be significant i.e. our siblings, friends, children, and even the love of your life. However, at some station our parents will step down from the train, leaving us on this journey alone. Others will step down over time and leave a permanent vacuum. Some, however, will go so unnoticed that we don't realize they vacated their seats. This train ride will be full of joy, sorrow, fantasy, expectations, hellos, goodbyes, and farewells. Success consists of having a good relationship with all passengers requiring that we give the best of ourselves.
The mystery to everyone is: We do not know at which station we ourselves will step down. So, we must live in the best way, love, forgive, and offer the best of who we are. It is important to do this because when the time comes for us to step down and leave our seat empty we should leave behind beautiful memories for those who will continue to travel on the train of life.
I wish you all a joyful journey ~

So now my best effort is no where good enough. Finished the room size rug for vineyard vines company. Now three rugs for long time customer then inventory for last show.

Vineyard vines, a clothing store on east coast has reached out for a denim rug. We made some for them years ago. Feels strange to be back in navy blue land.

What’s on the loom? Red and black stripes on rug loom. Black on placemat loom. Emerald and white pinwheels on dish towel loom. Hope weather warms up enough to spend time in lodge this week.

Just took dish towels off the 8 harness. Have sage placemats on show loom and dark navy on rug loom. I’m ready for January thaw. And maple syrup weather.
