PRIZE DRAW WINNER!!

Lin Hylton picks up her draw prize of the sweater and hat, and was absolutely thrilled to receive them. She was fascinated by the "back to back" aspect of it, and takes it home to Saskatchewan later this month. It was an absolute pleasure to give her the draw prize - "You couldn't give it to anyone who would appreciate it more!" she said.

Salmon Arm Fall Fair - Sheep to Shawl Event

Hello everyone - well here they are - the wonderful pictures of our Shuswap Spinners and Weavers "Sheep to Shawl" event that took place at this year's Salmon Arm Fall Fair.  The event was held on Saturday this year and our guild members spent the day spinning and weaving this beautiful scarf.  Isn't it stunning?  Here are a few pictures, which as nice as they are - I'm sure don't do it justice in real life.  I can't wait to see this beautiful piece at an upcoming guild event. 



Have you looked closely? Can you tell which is the front and which is the back?  Can you see the sparkly threads woven in? 
Told ya ....STUNNING! :)
Thank you to all the ladies that took part - you certainly outdid yourselves again this year!
