Welcome!

The Seattle Weavers' Guild began with a small group of Seattle weavers meeting informally in homes. The group grew over time, meeting other weavers through local yarn shops. In 1937, the Seattle Weavers' Guild was founded with twenty-three members. Though the membership has grown, the goal of the founding members remains: to further interest and knowledge of handweaving in our membership and the public. The Seattle Weavers' Guild has over 350 members and is among the five largest guilds in the country. The Guild recently celebrated its 80th Anniversary!

The Seattle Weavers’ Guild is an enthusiastic and active group of weavers that meets to share a love of weaving, inspire each other, and learn new techniques. Members at every level, from complete beginners to world-renowned professionals, are welcome in the Seattle Weaver's’ Guild.

Seattle Weavers Guild is a member of the Association of Northwest Weavers' Guilds (ANWG), and a co-sponser of the ANWG 2025 Conference to be held in Yakima, WA June 16-21, 2025.

SWG hosts Monthly Meetings with presentation by accomplished fiber artists, September through May, in Bloedel Hall at St. Mark’s Episcopal Cathedral, Seattle. Many of the meetings are accompanied by Workshops.
SWG also holds a 3 Day Annual Sale every October featuring members’ works and creations.
Meetings are open to the public, and are also broadcast via Zoom; workshops are for primarily for active Guild Members.
