Elegant Threads 2018

The Qualicum Weavers and Spinners Guild will be holding our annual show and sale on November 23 and 24th from 10 am to 5 pm.

The sale features the works of guild members.  Members have a wide range of interests including spinning, felting, knitting, weaving, basketry and dyeing.  So, you can expect to find a variety of items and styles.

All of the items in the sale are hand crafted with limited production.  Many are original designs and one of a kind creations that you won't find anywhere else.  Some are inspired creations with a story to tell so be sure to ask the maker when you visit our show.

This year we will be holding our sale at Qualicum Commons (formerly QB elementary school).  Our studio and resource centre is located here and it will be open during the sale for those interested in seeing the large looms.  The address is 744 Primrose Street.  There is plenty of parking in the lot behind the Commons.  The entrance to the lot is on Primrose.  (See links of interest for map)

The Elegant Threads Sale is also a fund raising event for the guild.  Every sale contributes towards the operation of the guild.  In addition we will be having an expanded silent auction this year.  This is your chance to get a bargain.

Admission is free and you can use your credit card for that special purchase.
