Meeting was called to order @ 6:06 p.m. by Krista, President.
The December minutes were approved without changes by everyone.
Roll call attendance was taken by Geri, Secretary.

UPCOMING MEETINGS

February 2:     Pincushion/small basket led by Connie and how to make a Josephine Knot to a stained handle. The pin cushion was the basket that Connie brought in for Show and had mint candies in at the December potluck. For the pincushion/small basket the Guild has the #2 & #3 round weavers, and some narrow reed in mixed colors, so you only need to bring your tools for making this basket. Pattern will be handed out in January.  Also, bring a finished and stained handled basket that the Josephine knot can be applied to on the center of its handle. Bring 11/64 FO.

March 2:         TBD – more info at our next meeting.
