Mending Our Ways

Mending Our Ways is an outreach program that we do in collaboration with The Future Forge. We offer free mending to our community to keep good clothing from the landfill. We also teach how to mend.

Ongoing Events

We have monthly “Mental Health and Fiber Day” gatherings for socializing and show and tell. Dates and locations are shared with members.

About Us

Incorporated in 2005, the Southwest Women’s Fiber Arts Collective is a grassroots, non-profit 501(c)3 organization. Our goal is to stimulate and support successful cottage fiber industry in the Southwest. We provide communication and information among artisans and guilds about art & craft shows and sales, workshops, classes, and teachers. By creating a networking structure we improve opportunities for everyone working in fiber arts to gain skills and financial independence.
