During the second part of the meeting, people will also have opportunity to prepare for June's kumihimo project. This is a great opportunity to try kumihimo or brush up on your skills.

Lynn Hahn will help anyone needing assistance. She will be selling kumihimo kits which include a disk, bobbins and weight for $10.

Kathy Taylor will be selling cord in the following sizes - small bobbin - 50 yards for $2.75; large bobbins - 135 yards for $5.25 and she has a gray cone of cord that she will be selling by the yard for .20 a yard.

If you wish to set up your disk this evening, you should also bring size 8 seed beads in two colors for this project.

Even experienced kumihimo workers may wish to bring their supplies and do their "homework" in preparation for the June meeting. Or bring another project to work on if you plan to set up your disk at home.

See you on Thursday and don't forget to bring all or some of the following,

Money for beads
Money for kumihimo supplies (kits and cord)
Beads if you plan to prep for the June meeting
Project to work on if you won't be prepping your kumihimo project
