Be sure to come to our April 17 meeting for an extravaganza of goods and services, both auctioned and raffled, from and for our members and guests.
We will have 3 ‘sales’ going on:
- Our Equipment Chair will auction off several pieces of equipment, including spinning wheels and a loom. Proceeds go to maintenance and purchase of Guild equipment.
- Our members will be offering a choice array of fun things to do and eat and collect in silent auction. Proceeds go to CHT (Contemporary Handweavers of Texas) for their upcoming 2009 Conference expenses.
- Even more will be available in Chinese lottery form — that is, you are allotted 3 or 4 free raffle tickets and you ‘spend’ them on whichever lottery items you crave.
Imagine all kinds of goodies, from homemade cheesecake to a custom felted cowboy hat; classes in basketry, gourds, beads, dyes; a personal museum tour, special yarns, custom carded spinning fibers, weaving tools.
If you have a brilliant idea for something to donate just email D’Anne Craft (craftd@swbell.net) and Connie Elliott (elliott3@pdq.net) and we will work with you on it. Time is clipping along, so act now if you want to add anything to this super auction and raffle.
