The TKGV president called the June 2011 meeting to order at 7:25 p.m. by welcoming our guests and extending birthday wishes to our members and guests celebrating their birthdays in June.
Sue Von Ohlsen presented a program on knitting with beads, with a specific emphasis on antique knitted bead bags. Sue’s presentation was quite interesting and contained beautiful and inspiring projects. Sue’s beaded knitting has been published and has been displayed at the Smithsonian Museum.
The guild approved Beverly Boler’s gracious offer to serve as treasurer for the rest of the term.
The president gave an update on the Sally Melville classes, to include registration forms.
On motion of Wanda Gunnoe, the guild approved using $322.27 to obtain bags for the World Wide Knit in Public Day.
The World Wide Knit in Public Day event will take place on Sunday, 06/19/11 from 12:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. at the D’Art Center in Norfolk, Virginia. Please bring a portable chair, knitting and a snack (if needed).
After the member show and tell, the Ways and Means committee conducted a raffle with items from KnitWits Virginia Beach, Virginia.
With all business concluded, the president adjourned the meeting at 8:55p.m.
