OLD BUSINESS
We discussed more details
of upcoming weaves. Ann shared pictures from Old World Wisconsin with our
baskets. We want to learn more techniques & skills in the future. Members discussed
using two meetings for weaving a basket that couldn’t possibly be done in one
meeting, more discussion later.
UPCOMING MEETINGS
October 6: Braided handle basket.
Bring a basket that is almost finished. It should be cut & tucked, without
the false rim, and a handle that can be wrapped with braids.
November 3: Hearth Basket, led by Dawn. Pattern will be
available at next meeting.
December 1: Open – POTLUCK – Christmas Exchange/White
Elephant
NEW BUSINESS
Annual dues are now
due, $15 for the year [September 2016 – June 2017].
Judy Street donated
two large binders of patterns from a former member. These will be added to the
Guild library, which includes some free materials, and molds.
The all day Saturday
weave will be October 29 at the church from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. POTLUCK. We will
be weaving a very large basket [pattern is being re-written with new name]. The
pattern will be emailed to you before the October 29th weave. Please
help us save time by printing off the pattern yourself. If you cannot, please
let us know in advance.
We will be
collecting donations at our next meeting [October 6] for the Church Ladies Guild. Please donate cash
or a basket.
SHOW & TELL
See photos of the
beautiful baskets that our talented members made over the summer. If I missed
anyone in the notations, I apologize in advance. It was not intentional.
Meeting was
adjourned by 6:30 p.m. For the remainder of the evening the guild worked on the
Weed Basket. See the photos below:
