January Materal List

Don't know the exact date yet of guild but it looks
like we are all leaning towards a change to Jan. 10th.

In January, Judy will be leading a basket by Debbie Hurd
called "Kisses". We will be all ready for for Valentine's Day!



Materials Needed
2 1/2" x 4" oval base -Judy has base and handle sets, cost per set is $7.00
4" square top handle
1/4" flat oval natural and dyed* ( see note)
1/4 flat -1 piece for rim row
seagrass
11/64 th " flat in dyed to match the 1/4" flat oval and natural for lasher
3/8" flat oval for rim

* The dyed 1/4" flat oval and 11/64 th" flat MUST BE THE SAME COLOR
( Of course, that is if you want your basket to be like the
one in the photo! ---It is cute with them the same color)

As mentioned above, Judy will bring the oval base and square top
handles. Cost is $7.00 for the set. She will also bring several
colors of reed.Or you can bring your own.
