Weaving design

INTO REALITY

The Fiber Arts Academy works to create 1930s-era blankets originally designed for Timberline Lodge

L

Larry Taylor is weaving a piece of history. On his loom at the Fiber Arts Academy in Astoria, a white blanket with bright rectangles of red, yellow and green is starting to take shape. The pattern recalls an earlier era, and this is no accident. In fact, the blanket is inspired by a design from the 1930s, a design meant to grace one of the beds at Timberline Lodge on Mount Hood. Taylor explains that this bedspread design and dozens of others were created by Margery Hoffman Smith – the original interior designHU IRU 7LPEHUOLQH /RGJH Âą WR Âż W WKH GpFRU RI individual guest rooms. But for unknown reasons, it appears that most or all of the intended blankets were never actually produced. “They never existed,â€? Taylor says. “They never made them. That’s what got me really excited because these have never physically been.â€? Taylor unearthed the designs from two books that were donated to the Multnomah County Library by Friends of Timberline, an organization that works to restore and pre-

serve the lodge and its furnishings. The books show watercolor representations of Hoffman Smith’s plans for rugs, curtains, upholstery fabric and other textiles for the lodge, including the bedspreads. “I tracked down the books in the library, and they let me take (photographs) of them,� Taylor says. “Then I started studying them and how we could translate these designs into physical manifestations of the blankets.� Many of the designs have whimsical names that recall the natural setting of the lodge, like “Moon Over the Mountain� and “Brook Trout.� And some of the bedspread patterns are reminiscent of recognizable locations from the building’s interior, like the Blue Ox Bar and its glass murals of Paul Bunyan and Babe. While a few designs feature simply a solid white blanket or a similarly plain pattern, others have bold geometric motifs in rich colors that are inspired by the lodge’s surroundings. “They’re similar to Pendleton blankets, but they’re all unique designs and very evocative

Larry Taylor, working on a J-Made Loom at the Astoria Fiber Arts Academy, follows a pattern for a 1930s-era design by Margery Hoffman Smith for Mt. Hood’s Timberline Lodge. The red, white and blue blanket, named Blue Gentian and designed for the lodge’s room 207, is one of about 25 that will be made and hopefully completed by the end of 2014.

of the 1930s,â€? Taylor says. “All the (blankets) that are actually designs that evoke the 1930s period are the ones that we’re focusing on. The plan is to do every interesting design.â€? With help from an Autzen Foundation grant, Taylor plans to work with other local weavers to produce about 25 blankets in all. While he intends his work to be hung for display rather than used as bedspreads, he has researched techniques that he believes will effectively translate the watercolor sketches into a woven product. He has also procured special yarns in wool and chenille in an attempt to capture the spirit of Hoffman Smith’s colorful designs. With each blanket taking about 25 hours to weave – and Taylor having a regular day job as a technology manager for Intel – the project will likely be completed by the end of 2014. Once the blankets are Âż QLVKHG 7D\ORUÂśV JRDO LV WR H[KLELW WKHP DW locations that showcase regional art, and perhaps at Timberline Lodge itself. He hopes that someday, they might become part of a permanent museum collection. If the blankets are exhibited at Timberline, they won’t be the lodge’s only examples of handiwork from the Fiber Arts Academy. Separate from Taylor’s bedspread project, several weavers at the academy are re-creating vin-

tage textiles that will help replace upholstery in the main lobby of the lodge as it gets worn. Of course, hand-crafted elements like the upholstery fabric are arguably the most important hallmark of the lodge. Taylor notes that current trends focusing on such hands-on practices have prompted a resurgence of interest in weaving. “It’s this whole sort of do-it-yourself movement,â€? Taylor says. “We’re getting the youth coming in now, which is always great. People want to understand how things are made.â€? Taylor himself started weaving only a year ago, when he took an introductory class at the Fiber Arts Academy. As his project continues, he looks forward to sharing the knowledge he has gathered since, and he even plans a “how toâ€? book that will document his work and explain his process to other weavers. Overall, Taylor says that weaving has givHQ KLP D QHZIRXQG DSSUHFLDWLRQ IRU Âż EHU DUWV and their history. “I had no idea what it took to make a piece of fabric until I did this, and it’s just astonishing,â€? he says. “You know, you can actually buy a pair of pants for $35, considering the labor, even just the fabric, and then the assembly. And once upon a time it was all made by hand.â€?

n the dark, past midnight, just offshore New Year’s Eve, while the rest of us headed for bed, a handful of Dungeness crabbers worked under a black starry sky, their decklights like planets on a near horizon. Who are those guys? “No, that wasn’t me this year,� says Dave Quashnick, a veteran skipper with a crabber’s low center of gravity and level-headed demeanor. He’d pulled his boat, Bella, into Warrenton Deep Sea for fresh bait, a couple of boxes of frozen squid, for

tomorrow’s trip. “New Year’s Eve I went to bed early. Then I woke at 2, kissed my wife, said ‘Happy New Year, honey,’ and went crabbing.� Crab season opens in mid-December along the coast between Point Arena in Northern California and Klipsan Beach on Washington’s Long Beach Peninsula. Coastal residents notice its beginning by the sudden appearance on clear nights of a constellation of crabbers’ lights off shore, blinking as they sometimes disappear behind heaving swells.

To more quickly and easily shed his undersize and female crabs, skipper Quashnick has added to his pots four “subescapeâ€? holes just smaller than the required two 4 Âź-inch escape holes. His pots come up mostly keepers, and his crew wastes little time sorting.

Problems and endurance

The $3-per-pound price this year is a good one, but it hasn’t helped a poaching problem that seems to some to have gotten worse in recent years. “I might lose a couple thousand dollars’ worth of crabs each season,� says Suomela. “And it’s not only the lost crab, but the expense of replacing the bait cans they steal.� “A couple thousand dollars? At least that,� agrees Quashnick. “The other day I was averaging 40 pounds a pot, then absolutely noth-

Olde Towne

Trading Post & CafĂŠ A relatively new breakfast and lunch spot that is every bit as charming as the name suggests

T

The other day while browsing online, I came across a coffee mug that said, “my favorite kind of coffee is the kind where no one talks to me while I’m drinking it,â€? and I made a mental note to purchase it at the earliest opportunity. Those that know me personally are well aware that I’m not what you’d call a morning person – in fact, if you looked in the dictionary under “not a morning person,â€? you’d see my picture, with disheveled hair, a coffee mug in my hand, and a general look of disdain on my face. When I’m out of the house, though, my other favorite kind of coffee is, conversely, the kind that is served with a smile and a friendly greeting – so much the better if it’s accompanied by delicious pastry or a hearty sandwich, and absolutely fantastic if it is also served in a fun, kitschy environment that doubles as an antique trading post. I am talking about the Olde Towne Trading Post & CafĂŠ in Ilwaco, Wash., a relatively new breakfast and lunch spot that is every bit as charming as the name suggests. When I’m not acting as The Mouth, one of my favorite hobbies is antique hunting, so on a recent visit I was delighted to peruse the shelves and cabinets of old cookie jars, vintage kitchenware and antique books while I was waiting for my meal. My fellow diners and I were equally pleased with our dining experience. Arriving rather late in the morning, we were able to sample both the breakfast and lunch items. I particularly enjoyed steaming hot, steel-cut oats, served in a pretty, antique glass parfait bowl. The consistency was creamy with the subtlest hint of nutty crunch, as is usual for steel-cut oats. A hearty sprinkling of brown sugar, a dash of cinnamon, and a few raisins capped the bowl off per-

If I were a regular morning customer, I might stop by and purchase one and eat half for breakfast and the other half as a midday snack.

PRICES: Incredibly reasonable, with nothing on the menu above $10 and most items hovering between $6 and $8. SERVICE: Owners Chester and Luanne Haynes prepare and serve the food themselves, every day, and do so with friendly smiles. ATMOSPHERE: Antiques and kitschy collectibles

size was very large. I might suggest a nice slice of French bread as an accompaniment to make the dish a true home run. The vegetarian sandwich on a croissant was also substantial and tasty, with lettuce, tomatoes, avocado, sprouts and red onion. A smoked salmon spread may also be added, for customers who’d like a little more protein. As a former vegetarian, I IRXQG LW JRRG DV LV DQG WKH EXWWHU\ À DN\ FURLVVDQW was a nice touch. The soup du jour on the day I visited was Italian wedding soup, which usually features meatballs in a light chicken-based broth with Parmesan cheese. I found the version offered here a bit bland for my liking, but I think it could easily be punched up with very little work. Perhaps some coarsely chopped endive or escarole for the broth, to give LW VRPH GHSWK DQG DGGLWLRQDO À DYRU DQG PD\EH a more complex meatball with a combination of beef, pork or veal? These are minor notes, though, and I would be interested in sampling the other soup offerings on different occasions. On the whole, I enjoyed my outing at the Olde Town Trading Post & CafÊ very much. The owners seemed to know most of the folks who walked through the door, and the spirit of warmth and friendliness was infectious. The menu is rather on the small side with typical, lunch-time offerings like BLTs and egg salad, but as I have often said, I so much prefer to see a small menu that is well executed than a large one that is mediocre. I hope that as the restaurant gains in popularity, the owners may choose to add a few items to the menu, as I suspect they would be just as tasty as the current offerings.

abound in the large space, which doubles as an antique shop. There are tables both large and small for lunch groups, and cozy armchairs for reading with your coffee. ALTERNATIVE OPTIONS: There are gluten free bakery items, in addition to a vegetable sandwich and salads. The daily rotating soup selection is sometimes vegetable-only. DRINKS: Coffee, tea, espresso, smoothies, and soft drinks.

Unfortunately, the way you have to record everything, it is hard to do all your paperwork on foods that you make from scratch, versus just getting it out of a box and heating it up.

Five Minutes With ... DEAN MUELLER

Submitted photo by Julie Yanko

Musician Dean Mueller splits his time between Portland and Manzanita.

This Chicago-born and Portland- and Manzanita-based bassist says that being a musician is just “what I was meant to do.” What song makes you crank up the volume? The first song I learned on bass: “Ramble On” or anything else by Led Zeppelin. Who is your favorite overlooked or underappreciated musician? Curtis Salgado. He is getting a lot of recognition these days in his genre, but, unfortunately, soul, blues and R&B does not get the level of recognition that it used to. What made you get involved with music? I just always felt it is what I was meant to do. I learned at a early age, and then I went down a different career path before returning to music and discovering it is what I was meant to do for a living. What instruments do you play? I play the upright and electric bass. I have played the trumpet, piano, organ

and guitar – but onstage, bass is where it’s at for me. Where can people hear you? I play regularly in the Northwest with the Duffy Bishop band. Over the past year I have played with several groups on the coast and produced shows in Manzanita. This has included Curtis Salgado, Duffy Bishop, Rich Delgrosso, Mary Flower and Julie Yanko. I intend to do the same next year at various venues in and around Manzanita. For New Year’s Eve I performed with Mary Flower and Julie “Fig” Yanko at Vino in Manzanita. Where were you born and where do you live now? I was born in Illinois in the suburbs of Chicago. Now I split my time between Portland and Manzanita. I love living on the coast, but as a musician I need the opportunities and access that a larger city provide, so I am a dual citizen. What musicians inspire you? More and more every day. My tastes have changed over

the years and I still like it all, but these days I really appreciate old-school jazz and blues from the 1950s. There is a long list of bass players that I appreciate like Ray Brown, Paul Chambers, Leroy Vinnegar, Willie Dixon, Ernest “Big” Crawford, John Paul Jones and James Jamerson. How do you occupy your time when you aren’t playing? Hanging out with my son,

Go Kart racing, mushroom hunting, fishing, surfing, and unfortunately I am spending too much time now on home remodeling. What do you like about living on the coast? I would go on and on about fishing, surfing and nature, but I think it comes down to a more relaxed living and less hustle and bustle. It’s a great break from my otherwise super busy life.
