Greater Birmingham Fiber Guild | January Meeting Announcement



Date: Saturday, January 13, 2024
Time: 10:00 to Noon-ish
Location: Hoover Church of Christ, 3248 Lorna Road, Hoover


Fiber Resolutions and Bring and Brag

For our January meeting we will make Fiber Resolutions for the new year and look at last year’s to see how we did. We will also share our fiber accomplishments. Bring your finished items to show to the group. If you want to, bring your oldest WIP and tell us it’s story and your future plans for it.


Name-tags: If you don’t have a name-tag or would like to replace your current one, look for the bucket of name-tag supplies at each meeting. If you would like to add something special of your own to the tag, don’t forget to bring it to the meeting.


Meeting Ideas: Look for an email coming soon, asking for ideas for future programs. If you have a particular craft expert or author who you would like to see via Zoom or in person, or a particular topic or craft you would like to see a presentation about or learn more about, let us know. Also, if you are willing to teach a program about a craft, or mentor someone new to a craft, let us know that, too.


Refreshments: After a long break from refreshments at the meeting, we’re starting up again! Jen will provide refreshments this time. Look for an email in the near future to sign up to provide them for a future meeting.
