Our next meeting is on October 11th, 11am-3pm in the Parish Hall of the All Saints Catholic Church in Lansing (347 Ridge Road).

The meeting will host a guild-garage sale. If you have fiber related items that no longer spark joy, bring them to the meeting, so others can buy them from you and give them the attention they deserve. Fleeces from Joan Johnston's stash will be available for free.

We will have also a Halloween theme going on: Bring fiber that scares you and let's try together, if we can make yarn out of it.
