April 25th and May 23rd Meeting

Bead Society Meeting Westbank
Saturday April 25 AND May 23, 2009
Time 1:00 pm to 3:00 pm
Location: LOVE LUTHERAN CHURCH,
3730 MAC ARTHUR BLVD.
NEW ORLEANS, LA 70114

Our project will be instructed by May Wong, who will teach a smocked fish.



Our class project for this month is a two-part class and will cover the months of April and May.

Because this is a specialized class, all kits will be furnished for $ 10. There will NOT be a material list.

Reservations need to May at mkwmkw49@cox.net so that enough kits are available for everyone.

Everything you need is included in the kit. The only thing you will need is scissors. The fee in Apr is $10 for the kit and $12 for the class. In May there will just be the class fee of $7.

We will learn to smock in April and in May we will construct the fish. Homework from the April meeting will be to finish the smocking and to decorate with your own beads if desired.

Instructions to complete the fish will be in the kit.

Bring a snack to share if you so desire.

Hope to see you there!
