Wichita Weavers, Spinners & Dyers Guild Posted on March 24, 2023 by WebAdminMarch 24, 2023

A surprise drop-in by KSN reporter Asia Cymone Smith was greeted with smiles and grace by a few participants in a March Open Spin session.

We’re not sure how she heard about our Open Spins, but are delighted with the publicity! The event is regularly held on Tuesday afternoons from 1 – 3 pm.

Fleeced to Meet You at the WAM

Wichita Weavers, Spinners & Dyers Guild Posted on January 26, 2023 by WebAdminFebruary 18, 2023

Nine Guild members were privileged to participate in the Wichita Art Museum’s January Family ArtVenture event “Fleeced to Meet You“. While the cold and rainy weather did put a damper on some of the plans for the day – the alpacas weren’t able to attend – it was warm and dry indoors, and we were able to talk fiber with a lot of people of all ages.

Visitors were able to watch a variety of fiber skills demonstrated, and even had a chance to try several techniques themselves!

  • Trying out an espinner – with floor loom weaving in the background
  • Guild information table
  • Needle felting
  • Spinning wool on a Turkish spindle
  • Nalbinding
  • Tapestry weaving
  • Spinning flax

Weaving Class Registration

Wichita Weavers, Spinners & Dyers Guild Posted on January 7, 2023 by webadminJanuary 7, 2023
Weaving Studio

Our next 6-week weaving session is scheduled to begin on January 23, 2023.

There has been a slight delay due to some health issues, and we deeply appreciate those who have stepped up to make sure the classes run smoothly!

As we prepare to transition to online registration for this class (we’re not there yet), we ask those who are interested in signing up for this session to submit the form on our Weaving Studio page if they have not already declared their intent to an instructor.

It is always gratifying to help new weavers begin their journey, and to see the beautiful projects that not-so-new weavers create!
