Happy New Year's Eve Everyone.
The Shuswap Spinners and Weavers Guild is an organization of almost 60 members dedicated to supporting those involved in the fibre arts community locally and promoting these creative skills in the larger community. All members of the larger fibre arts community are welcome - spinners, weavers, fetlers, fibre producers, knitters and those who crochet. It is a very eclectic group with a history of service in the Shuswap region.

Christmas Pot Luck Luncheon held on November 24th.
This was a guild get together. We enjoyed finger food
and Show and Tell. Not everyone was able to attend
but we had a nice turn out. It was a nice time to visit
before the Christmas rush.
