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 the name of Desert Sage Spinners and Weavers Guild the tartan made its first appearance at the annual Arts and Craft Show. In May 2024, we voted to change the name to Desert Sage Fibre Arts Guild to reflect the diversity of the Guild.

We had a terrible snowstorm overnight but Klaudia and her students braved the weather to attend the Beginner's Felting Workshop at the Community Centre. She says her "sixstudents all did very well. We made a chair pad with some embellishment or just have fun with colour". Photos provided by Klaudia.
