February Featured Program:
Diane Fabian-Smith will facilitate a wire-wrapping class at the Febrary meeting. Members are asked to bring in a stone for wrapping. Rough or polished stones will work fine. Any shape would work, though a perfect sphere would be more challenging. Mary Fraser and Jerry will bring some stones to sell to members who don’t have one of their own. Bring small wire cutters, pliers (flat-nosed or needle-nosed and round nosed). Members can bring their own wire and Diane will bring copper wire for practice.
