Beginners/Refresher Spinning Workshop

Gudie is hosting a Beginners/Refresher Spinning Workshop on Saturday October 25 from 10:00 - 3:00 at the Guild Office with a cost of $25.00. Fleece is provided and Spinning Wheels if needed. Space is limited and this class is filling up quickly so please contact Gudie or Shirley if you are interested. Gudie will have come back from a very special workshop in Vancouver and she will be sharing what she learned there, so this should be a very fun day.
