Arlene Balcuinas, Sandi Dedrick, Jean Becker, Darlene pearsall, Carrie Pearsall, Tamara Bacus, Jaime Shure, Toby Harris, Carmella
Patterson, Sherry Evard, Josie Addington and Lidia Leidloff attended as our guest.

Announcements/New Business
October is traditionally the Guild's "Mad Hatter" tea party. Since space is limited at Bad Woman, Justine suggested that
no everyone bring treats to the October meeting. As a footnote to the Minutes, please let either Justine or Josie know by
email or group post if you intend to bring a treat.
Vet Scarves: We have tentatively set a date to deliver the scarves: October 24, 2009. Justine will let us know whether
or not the date is firm.
September Workshop
Jean led the workshop on how to read charts. We worked on a simple square piece and moved on to a more complicated circular
piece. The handout was a pattern for a scarf and what appears to be a round doily (that this crocheter will be making).
Show -n- Tell:
From the many talented folks in the group, we saw the following:
Tamara: a beautiful yellow shell topper made with Luster Sheen and several beautiful doilies, including a filet table runner
that is her current WIP. The table runner was a pattern from a book entitled 150 Favorite Crochet Designs which is
a compilation by Mary Carolyn Waldrop and published by Dover needlework Series.
Darlene showed us her cable scarf from a pattern she altered as her own.
Sherry showed us a lovely scrap afghan WIP using a pattern from Lean to Crochet (In Just One Day) published by Leisure
Arts.
Carrie shared her WIP capelet.
