I missed all but the end of the annual Christmas Potluck and ornament exchange.  Very little business was conducted.  It was agreed that meetings would be canceled if the schools closed due to acclimate weather. Speaking of schools at the guild "F"s are enjoyed by all - friends, food, and fiber.  There is no failure when these come together.  On the table are sampler mug rugs made by guild members in the class for warping a table loom taught by Barb Leuelling. Nice work done by all. Just a reminder to all - no meeting in January.  There will be a board meeting and a newsletter in the beginning of the new year. For the most up-to-date information other than Pat who is lightning quick with the e-mail messages (Thank you, Pat!) check Facebook.

Mary Reichert from Otlak Felting Studio and Clothing gave an excellent presentation at our November meeting.  The 45 minute presentation was followed by Q&A, a snack, Show and Tell, and a business meeting.  In this picture you can see some of the rugs that she has designed and felted.

This picture is just a few of the items brought for Show and Tell. The socks were made by Barb Leuelling, the little boys vest by Joyce Baudek, the felted item and rug hooked sock by Sue Archbold. Sue will be offering classes for those who wish to make her items.

Thursday, November 7, at 6:30 Mary Reichert from Otlak Felting and Clothing store will give a presentation to the Range Fiberart Guild members.  The meeting will be held upstairs in Gethsemane Lutheran Church. Mary will share her felting knowlege and experience with us as well as sharing a slideshow of her time she learned about felting in Kyrgyzstan. The public is welcome to attend.
