OLD BUSINESS
The guild was
featured in the local newspapers from the Saturday weave showcasing the Market
Basket. Members made a total
of sixteen (16) Market Baskets to donate to Old World Wisconsin located in
Eagle, WI. Dawn W. volunteered to deliver all of them later this month. Old
World Wisconsin’s kind thank you will be four (4) free passes for each weaver
that made a basket. THANK YOU Dawn!!! If you didn’t sign up for the free passes
and you made a market basket donation, contact Dawn W.
NEW BUSINESS
Sue has various
sizes of natural reed for anyone, free. Contact Sue.
We are planning a
Saturday fall weave. The Laundry Luger was chosen, and you’ll need to sign up
at our June meeting. Our guild will have the stakes. Sue & Ann will bring
in their samples of this basket for viewing, touching, oohing and aahing in
June. This is a big basket and takes a lot of time.
June Meeting – POTLUCK – Bring a dish to pass, meeting begins @ 6:01
p.m.
This will be our LAST meeting until September 1, 2016
when yearly dues are due.
JoAnn will show us
how to RAND.
NOTE: We will learn randing when we weave the Flowing Rainbows.
Pattern has been emailed to all. Please have your basket started up to randing
before this meeting.
SHOW & TELL
Stephanie & Judy
went to their Indiana convention and showed off their creations. Awesome! They
made baskets around the clock that were tall, big, angelic, footed, some with a
matchstick border [oh I want to learn], braided handles, a picnic basket, bread
basket, and tableware basket.
Not to be
overlooked, Sue brought in three baskets to share and Barb J. brought in a BIG
basket as well. Awesome creations ladies!
I’m going to have to
start taking pictures, or do what the rest of us do, attend the meetings to see
these masters’ works of art. Breathtaking creations!
Meeting was
adjourned by 6:25 p.m.
For the remainder of
the evening the guild worked on the Shell Basket led by JoAnn. Cute, easy, and a
versatile basket. Thank you JoAnn.
