Antiques Fair 2023

Wichita Weavers, Spinners & Dyers Guild Posted on April 30, 2023 by WebAdminApril 30, 2023

Thanks to PBS Kansas for allowing the Guild to participate in their Antiques Fair again this year!

Guild members who were there (Chris, Carol, Paula and Sharon) with displays, demonstrating and discussing all things fiber with passers-by, had so much fun that they ALL forgot to take pictures!

We do hope to be able to share photos taken by PBS Kansas staff, though, so watch this space.

The one picture that Sharon took was of a mother duck leading her brood off to the nearby pond!

She stopped to rest in the shade just outside the window long enough to let everyone rush over to ooh and aah, before they set off again. (They were still on the move in this photo.)

We’re on Local TV News!

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
