The Journal
is the quarterly magazine of the UK Association of Guilds of Weavers, Spinners & Dyers. It is published in February, May, August and November for those interested in weaving, spinning and dyeing whether as a hobby or professionally. For more information visit www.journalwsd.org.uk.
Reader’s Showcase
Do you have a project you are particularly proud of and which you would like to share with other
readers of the Journal? It might be something that went really well – or it might be a project that
didn’t go quite according to plan, but that you were able to rescue. As with the Show & Tell sessions
that many Guilds hold, sharing the experience of problem-solving is very valuable to others who
may be disheartened by apparent failure, when a new approach may rescue the project.
If you have a project you’d like to share, please contact: highlights@journalwsd.org.uk
