OLD BUSINESS
Krista read the thank-you note from the church pastor thanking the guild for the chili supper donation.
We have several molds being kept with our president that can be checked out by any member wishing to use them. A log will be kept as not to lose sight of them. Contact Krista if interested.
NEW BUSINESS
The guild will purchase new reed for weaving the Old World market baskets. This will be done on a Saturday weave in the spring, date not set.
If you didn't sign up for the handle for our January’s weave [Shaker Basket, led by Krista], contact Barb before December to ensure that you have it for the upcoming meeting. The basket pattern and material listing is in The Basket Book, by Lyn Siler on page 51. If you do not have this book, somebody will share with you.
JANUARY SHAKER BASKET MATERIALS:
5/8" FF for stakes guild reed available in paprika, cherry red, scarlet red, some burgundy, and some medium green
1/4" FF for weavers guild reed available is 3/16" FF in natural
1/4" FF for hidden rim row. Need to bring your own
3/8" flat oval for rim guild reed available

Handles: Choice of fixed or swing need to have signed up or contact Barb to order soon!!!
There should be enough guild reed for all to weave that night. If you want other colors bring your own. You will be cutting the stakes that night so if you want to come a little earlier it will be there by 5:30 for best selection.
Ann made a motion to adjourn the meeting and Sue seconded the motion.
Meeting was adjourned by 5:50 p.m.
For the remainder of the evening the guild made A Carolina Christmas basket led by Barb J. So pretty and many variations. Thank you Barb!
