Goat hair, cotton, linen, tencel, rayon, wool.

Egyptian diagonals, letters, pebble weave, threaded-in patterns, in-lay, brocade, soumak, fringe, double-face, 3/1 twill, transposed cards, plain weave, and the deciphering of a hand-me-down, partially-woven band on triangular cards.
Inspiration and delight. I started slowly, looking at each piece, reading. Then I started flipping through the stack, admiring the piece with fringe, looked at the next sample. Wait a minute: this is a color copy (scan?). Look back, oh rats, that's not real fringe, that's a copy too. Margaret, what outstanding copies!
What I would do differently next time: send along extra thread samples in case there are again so many participants that copies are necessary.
To everyone who sent in samples: thank you for sharing your interest in cardweaving. Every sample is an inspiration. And thank you Margaret for coordinating this exchange.
