About the program
Start the year off right with a hands-on basketry project among friends. To create a lacy wall basket, we will twine around a double cross base, chase the diamond weave, twine four rows and create a two-step border. The finished product will be 9" high, 2" wide, and 2" deep (including handle).
Tools to bring: spray bottle, soaking bin, flat awl, and tapestry needle.
The meeting will open at 6:30 p.m. with library and social time. We will call to order at 7:00 p.m. for Guild announcements, member sharing, and the monthly program.
