Narda called our meeting to order around 6:00 pm. and asked for a moment of silence. We have a few members who have experienced some sadness in their lives recently. We hope for brighter days for those affected.
Favorite tools or notions were discussed by some in attendance. It was a good discussion!

GUEST SPEAKER - Lisa from Loose Threads in Harriman came to share some new things she is doing at her shop.
