Diablo Weavers Guild

January 24, 2014

We're having an "upside down" meeting today - program first, meeting

afterwards.

Mary Helen Binger introduced our speaker, Lynn Harris, of Saori Berkeley, told

us about the background of Saori weaving, and we all got a chance to try it out.

Two pieces of Saori cloth were woven, and Vilija and Pam took them home to

create bags for Diablo's display at conference.

Meeting notes:

The CNCH early bird deadline is 1/31/14. Registration is down, vendor

participation is down. There is an article clarifying gallery entries.

Joan Anderson has a handout with dates to remember, and gallery and entry forms. People can enter up to 3 items per gallery.

Each bag for the gallery needs an entry form and picture. Bring entries to the

March meeting and they will all be mailed together.

We cannot get the library for the April meeting.

"The Devil Made Me Do It" bag can be turned in at the February meeting, last

Friday in February. The entry form and picture are due at the February meeting

if you want the guild to pay the entry fee. The bag is due by the March meeting.
