Welcome to The Embroiderers’ Guild of Tasmania Inc.

The Embroiderers’ Guild of Tasmania, founded in 1968, promotes and encourages the co-operation and interchange of ideas among those engaged in or interested in embroidery and related crafts. This is achieved through informal weekly meetings where members work on a wide range of embroidery styles. The extensive library is available to extend members’ skills. There are also regular workshops, classes and a welcoming monthly Saturday group which caters for those who are unable to come to daytime gatherings.
