Glamorgan Guild of Weavers Spinners & Dyers

Our next workshop date has changed to the 16th of November - all spaces are now fully booked! Emails have been sent out to those who have booked, reminding them of the items they need to bring on the day. Please remember to bring your outstanding fees for the workshop. If you are a guild member you can still attend the day and not take part in the workshop - just bring yourself and something else to work on!

Our next workshop will be on Saturday 11th May at the Scouts Hall in Dinas Powys - 10 - 4. This will be a workshop preparation for our dyeing day with Kathy Williams in July. Please bring your items for dyeing preparation, as our focus will be on Shibori dyeing. For those of you who may be wondering what Shibori dyeing is - Wikipedia explains it a bit here . At a very basic level it is similar to tie-dyeing, but the complexities of the end results with Shibori are significantly different to the tie-dyeing you may have experimented with in the past! We also now have a brand new Facebook page - right  here . Please go ahead and like us.

Our next meeting is this Saturday in Dinas Powys Souts Hall from the usual time 10am-4pm. This workshop will be led by guild members on Needlefelt, Maradai braids and Inkle weaving as a follow up from last month's evening meeting where we had demonstrations of the individual crafts. This promises to be a fun workshop with the opportunity to pick up a new skill, or try your hand at something you've always wanted to give a go!

This month's workshop is an open workshop. Feel free to bring whatever you fancy working on! Some members will be bringing their six inch rings to start/complete for the national exhibition. We run from 10am-4pm at the Scouts Hall, Dinas Powys. Please email us for more information.
