This month's Show and Tell really demonstrates the many talented, skilled members we have. There were so many fine articles for Show and Tell at our last meeting of the 2013 year. I'm sorry I don't have the names of the artists or the details of the articles.
Our roots began in 1977,when a few weavers began meeting in each other's homes to encourage innovation and learning. Member Daphne Malins designed and wove her Okanagan Tartan which she registered with CIPO and as a Scottish Tartan. In 1980 the Guild adopted its current name and the tartan made its first appearance at the annual Arts and Craft Show. For more than 45 years we have been supporting spinners, weavers, knitters, felters and other fibre arts in the beautiful South Okanagan of B.C.

The website has been redesigned to make it easier to view on phones and tablets. Here is the 2023/24 Season Schedule.
Visit us on Facebook at Desert Sage Spinners & Weavers.
If you are new to weaving or unfamiliar with some terms, the sites Weave Structures and Plain Weave Variations will help.
I like this article on Mixing Twills for its practical learning.
