Duneland Weavers' Guild home page!
Come join us: Our meetings are open to the public. We encourage not-yet weavers and non-weavers as well as weavers to come participate in our programs.
On February 11, our program will be the Weavers' Challenge. Five weavers will show and tell about the projects they wove, each using one of Lisa's lovely impulse-buy skeins of yarn (see the weavers and skeins in the photo below). A sewing workshop on working with handwoven fabric to make garments will follow in the afternoon.
Why
I am a Guild Member
I have
been in Duneland Weavers' Guild since 1988. I am not a weaver
but a
knitter since 1960 and a spinner since 1998. I value the
guild for all
the wonderful programs we've had and for all the friends I've made
through the
years. DWG has something for everyone and you can always
learn something
new. Making jewelry and doing beading with Anita Mayer is one
thing I've
learned. I've enjoyed all the programs even when I don't
understand
them. The program we had in October about warping the loom
was very
interesting.
The Guild's 60th Anniversary was in 2008.
(Thanks for the photo, Larry and Lisa!)
Guild members,
wearing
our DWG aprons, celebrate our
60th anniversary in March, 2008.
To
inspire us to look ahead to our January meeting when we will plan the
friendship coverlet project, two members brought in two beautiful
friendship coverlets made earlier:

for the photos, Ken!)
