FTWG Anniversary Cookbook:
Submit your recipes for a special guild cookbook with a weaving theme. There will be a contest to name the book. See the cookbook segment below for details.

Charity Challenge:
Our goal is to collect and donate 75 of your handmade items. Blankets will go to Project Linus. Hats, scarves, and mittens will go to Hats 4 the Homeless.
Fashion Show:
Work the runway in a fashion show with a diamond theme.
Photo Area
Pose with diamond-themed props and we’ll take your photo on Thursday night for Facebook. If you’d like, bring your own special hat or props. You can use your own camera for more photos any time during the rest of the weekend.
More details on these anniversary events will be emailed to FTWG members and posted on the FTWG Facebook page over the next year.
