Marty, JoAnn, And Ann had show and tell baskets. Pat reported a talk with an attorney and we are ok to copy patterns to be used as teaching tool. We only need to get permission to use if we sell the pattern or use it more than 6 times. Our by-laws are ok on this. Apparently some of you cannot open these minutes so you will find them on the blog ( thanx to Darleen). 13 members in attendance. Motion to adjourn Anne and Marlene.
Note: Donna is taking a leave of absence from Guild due to job constraints. May be able to come to all day weave on a Sat. Otherwise we'll see her when she has more time.
