50 years and still going strong
Members have been busy making items to celebrate 50 years of our Guild
A big thank you to everyone who came to visit for our Fleece and Friendship day and helped make it a very special day.
The last venue for our Exhibition will be the
The Welsh Quilt Centre, Lampeter
The Exhibition will open on Tuesday 12 August and run till the last week in September.
Some work will be on display only, but many locally hand made items will be available to purchase.
​
Ceredigion Guild of Weavers, Spinners and Dyers
is for anyone interested in these crafts.
We are affiliated to
The Association of Guilds of Weavers, Spinners and Dyers
(AGWSD)
Fifty years ago when our Guild was founded the following was written into our constitution.
'The objects of the Guild shall be to maintain and develop the handicrafts of spinning, weaving and dying, to work together with kindred bodies, and to assist members selling their work.'
We try to maintain this practice to ensure these ancient skills remain living skills
while enjoying all the equipment, fibres, dye stuffs and technology available to us now.
We run a varied programme of workshops, talks and demonstrations to achieve these aims and to expand our knowledge and enjoyment of our crafts.
​
Our membership spans all levels of competence and skill.
If you're just starting out, thinking about starting, or have been practising these disciplines for a long time, we'd love to welcome you to our Guild meetings.
Many members are happy to share their knowledge with those less experienced to help in the learning and enjoyment of our crafts.​
