Meeting Reminder

The next meeting of the East Ohio Handweavers is April 16 at 9:30 am in the Leetonia library. Please use the back entrance.

Sheila will be doing the program on weaving tapestry amulet bags…a great way to use up those thrums! All you need to bring is scissors. If you prefer yarns of your own, you can bring them – medium to light weight is best.
