Meting called to Order by Denise, president.
13 Members were present.
No April meeting.

May 6th Meeting will be Thursday night. We will be weaving the TV Basket. Denise already handed out the pattern for it, and you all should have your base. If not, contact Denise.

June will be Leather Handles by Peggy.

JoAnn contacted Diane Gliexner about doing a fall weave. The date for the Fall Weave will be September 11 from 9:00-4:00. JoAnn had pictures of basket choices to work on and we all signed up for the one(s) we wanted to do. Money is due by the September meeting to JoAnn.

We need ideas for basket options for Electricity Bases that will be done over the summer at $10.00 per base. At the June Meeting there will be election of officers and deciding on the basket Electricity Base.

Again we had wonderful baskets that Krista, Karen, Ann, Peggy, and Sharon had done. Peggy had done an Instant Coffee Stain on her basket. Krista sent the following link for the recipe:
