Welcome to our website! Please visit us often and join one of our regional groups. Members truly enjoy sharing and teaching what they know about the crafts of spinning and dyeing, and the gatherings around the State provide an opportunity to share the pleasure of fiber arts with friends.
FEBRUARY 14, 2012 - Photos and description of the Fashion Show have been added to the Scrapbook page. Our members have been busy - exploring new techniques, taking on challenges and creating beautiful and useful things with a range of fibers. It will take several sessions to get the photos and notes translated over to this website so check back often over the next week to ten days. If there is something that can be added (or corrected), please send it in a message to the website administrator using the login feature on the F&F page.

It was a great turnout for the Swap on November 12. The table was full of mystery packages holding a variety of beautiful fibers. Traders had a difficult decicision to make - keep or swap!
The members below came prepared for an action - packed afternoon - wheels equipped with cupholders. More photos will be added to this website as members send them in.
The afternoon auction was a fun and profitable activity for both the bid winners and the guild. Many thanks to Linda Stevens for her very generous donation of so many truly beautiful items, and our very best wishes to her as she pursues new adventures.
Included in the mix of donated fiber, yarns, books and equipment was a stack of past issues of Weavings from New England. Carol is a new member from northern VT and was very pleased to find a 1986 issue featuring an interview she did including a photo and writings about her daughter's handspinning. Carol would like to contact the bid winner who very kindly gave her that one booklet and has asked us to reach out via this message. Carol can be reached by email at .
