Resources for Everyone
The Galleries
The Galleries showcase weaving from our biennial exhibit Complexity as well as the Complex Weavers Journal, the Complex Weavers Awards programme and our many study groups.
Weave to Dye
Kay Faulkner was a long-time Complex Weavers member, an expert weaver and a valued teacher. When Kay passed away suddenly in May 2019 she left the manuscript of Weave to Dye unfinished. Neither Kay’s family nor friends wanted the event of her death to stop the publication of her work, and the Complex Weavers board are honoured to be able to present it here as a gift from Kay Faulkner to all weavers worldwide.
Resources for Complex Weavers Members
New: the Sandra Rude Memorial Fund Grant Program
This grant is offered annually for technical and aesthetic development related to learning and teaching advanced weaving techniques.
The Journal
The Complex Weavers Journal, published three times a year, allows members to share their ideas and studies.
Study Groups
Study groups and Sample Exchanges are an ongoing and vital part of Complex Weavers. Self organized and financed, they produce samples, newsletters or other materials for exchange among members. New groups are formed as demand arises. See our Study Group List for a listing of all study groups, a description of each, and a link to a page with a fuller description.
The Library
The Library has an extensive collection of books, manuscripts, and samples which members may borrow by mail. The complete list of library contents is available at Library Thing.
The Members Directory
Also, if you are a member and you are signed in, you can browse our Members Directory to find kindred spirits in your area. Thinking of buying a new loom and looking for advice from someone who has relevant experience? Or perhaps you are shopping for weaving software and want to know the pros and cons of different programs. Or perhaps you are trying to locate a teacher for a guild workshop or other event. The Members Directory is a valuable resource for a whole host of reasons.
