Members Meeting
Saturday 30 July 2022
Members General Meeting
The focus of this meeting will be a fashion parade showcasing the Dressed in the Best, an exhibition of handwoven and tailored garments by members. Some of the garments in the exhibition will be worn and the maker will discuss how they are woven and tailored.
The Guild with exhibition and yarn store will be open from 10.30 am-4 pm
We also have a variety of books for sale with all proceeds going to the library to update the collection.
Bring your crafts, sit in the sun near Foster Hall or on the balconies or in the shop. Also, use the use facilities in the spinning and weaving rooms during the day. There are warped-up weaving and inkle looms if you would like a try or spinning wheels and fleece. Tea and coffee are provided.
Courses on Begin Spinning and Begin Weaving continue throughout the year, visit WeTeachMe https://weteachme.com/handweaversandspinnersguildofnswinc to check availability and dates.
Begin Spinning is usually conducted in three-hourly sessions for four weeks. Begin Weaving is usually conducted as three full-day workshops.
