Welcome to the Oakville Handweavers and Spinners Guild Blog. We started in 1952 and since then we have taken part in many local community activities. Members of our Guild demonstrate spinning or weaving at historical sites throughout Oakville; we network with Guilds in surrounding areas by means of workshops and seminars; we participate with other local Guilds in textile exhibitions and provide individual and group instruction in weaving and spinning.

This is our 100 inch loom
We’re glad to know that we will soon have our own “home” for the Guild. The Queen Elizabeth Park project is well under way and we will have our very own fibre space. This space will enable us to dye fibres, organize workshops for spinning and weaving. We can’t wait to lay our hands on this beauty soon (at the moment it is unassembled and waiting for a “wake-up call”!)
