Swiss Sampler
The Swiss Sampler correspondence group is off to a good start with 13 participants. Patty Andrews and Gail Dursher are providing excellent guidance and we are learning from each other as well. The next meetings will be held at the home of Gail Durscher. The morning group will meet at 10 a.m. on November 11; the evening meeting will be at 7 p.m. on Tuesday, November 10 with Monday evening November 9th as an alternate in case the weather is uncertain. We will not meet again until January, so come with your project to ask questions, see what others are doing, andget to know others in the group better.
Please contact Phyllis Olson or Gail Durscher if you plan to attend.
Crazy Patch Adventure has been selected as the next Correspondence Course. This piece really allows you to be creative. It is pictured and described on page 29 of the 2009-2010 EGA Education Catalog or you can see it on line at the EGA website. Cost of the class is $25. If you did not have an opportunity to sign up at the October meeting, but would like to take the class please send your check payable to CVEGA to Phyllis Olson or bring it to the November meeting. Although we will not start this project until after the first of the year, we need to send in our enrollments soon because it takes a little time to process the paperwork. We hope to have the instructions to distribute at the December brunch. If you have any questions, please call or email Phyllis.
Contact Phyllis Olson for additional information about correspondence courses from EGA.
Detailed descriptions and photographs are available in the Education Supplement.
