| Welcome To The Piedmont Fiber Guild | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Organized in the early 1970's as the Charlotte Handweavers Guild, our group has evolved into a regional membership comprised of people interested in all aspects of the fiber arts: spinning, weaving, knitting, doll making, surface design, basketry and beadwork, to name a few. We meet in Gastonia, NC at Unity Place, located at 201 West Franklin from 2 to 4 pm on the third Sunday of each month, September -November and Jan-May. We offer programs related to fiber arts each month, and workshops with regionally and nationally know artists several times each year. Visitors and guests are welcome. A handiwork group meets monthy, usually on the second Saturday of each month, for a potluck lunch, roating among the homes of the members. We bring food to share, our spinning wheels, knitting and other projects we are working on |
