Peterborough guild

We are a friendly group meeting in a modern but cosy village hall that has space for all our activities. Visitors are welcome to come along and find out about us. We have a mix of outside speakers, our own skill shares and working sessions.

Regular meetings are 10am – 3pm.

Our programme for 2024 included:

Dyeing, Weaving calculations, visit to Lucy Boston patchworks at Hemingford Grey. Including skill shares from our members. Plus regular working sessions where we bring along our own projects.

2025 will be the Golden Anniversary of our Guild, founded in 1975 and we are planning a project making a banner to celebrate.
