Some background:
This is our 31st year! We have about 20 members and are growing all the time. We are passionate about weaving, spinning and dyeing and related textile crafts too - like knitting, felt-making, crochet, braiding.
We try and do an activity at each evening meeting and hold whole ( and half day) Saturday workshops throughout the year.
We also have had an annual exhibition for the past 4 years and this year will be exhibiting at Quarry Bank Mill in September.
We can also be found at Alsager Farmer's Market and regularly demonstrate our skills to the public.
We now have a committee :
Chair : Janet Major
Secretary: Jane White
Treasurer : Annette Drake
Membership is £20.00 for a year which gets you a quarter share (so to speak) in the journal and a significant discount at workshops. Cost per meeting is £1.00 to cover meeting costs. We welcome vistitors, (3 visits allowed per year (£3.00) per visit, but this will also give you a dscount if you decide to join us.
If you would like a flavour of what we do:
take a look at the events page to see what we did at the last meeting or the calendar for events for the rest of the year.
Look at the stall at the Farmer's Market to see a small selection of the sorts of textiles we produce and the Gallery to see more pictures.
