This Guild
is affiliated to the Association of Guilds of Weavers Spinners and Dyers and
has been in existence since 1978. We are a small guild of about 20 members
and meet in the George Woods Room at the Old School, South Road in Sully near
Cardiff. We meet on a monthly basis at either Saturday workshops or Tuesday
evening meetings when an invited speaker will talk about or demonstrate various
techniques on any of the three crafts as practised anywhere in the world,
sometimes with slides or Powerpoint and example items.
Guests for
evening meetings are always welcome, as they are for workshops so long as
there are vacancies. To avoid disappointment it is advisable to book a place
for workshops in Advance. Phone 029 2062 4834 or any of the comittee on the
'contact us' page.
The Guild will be involved
in other 'Outside' Events for example the Annual Exhibition at the Museum
of Welsh Life, Wonderwool Wales at Builth Wells, FABICreATIONS: The Associations'
