Refreshments will be provided by Sheila.
The after meeting special interest tapestry group will be continuing on with some design & patterning ideas. Bring your tapestry supplies & questions. This is a useful instruction free from the Schacht Spindle website. Print it out and follow along.
Tapestry Study Group
