We were at the Priddis & Millarvillle Fair
On August 15th, members of the Sheep Creek Weavers participated in the annual Fleece to Shawl competition. This proved to be another good-natured rivalry between the Sheep Creek Weavers, Heritage Weavers (Calgary) and the Crocus Guild (High River and Okotoks). Awards were presented for: Speed, Spinning Consistency, Weaving Finesse, Creativity and Team Spirit.

The annual Make & Take event took place on the following day with volunteers from the Sheep Creek Weavers sharing their knowledge and skills with fair goers of all ages.
We gratefully acknowledge Rob Ing of Rob Ing Productions Ltd. who skillfully captured the essence of the event.




We invite you to visit an ongoing display of our 50th Anniversary Projects and watch members demonstrate a few of our various fibre arts practices. You can find us at the Alberta Craft Gallery and C-Space (1721 29 Ave. SW, 2nd floor, Calgary) beginning July 4th and running until August 29th.
