FIBER ARTS

An important message about fiber arts from Susan Hager (sushager@gmail.com) and Susan Ryan (susanelryan@aol.com).

NMBS membership. We need to decide if there are to be changes in the Division and Category for Entry Form for the Fiber Arts Exhibit in May, 2009. We realize that this is a year and a half away, but the wheels are in motion and deadlines need to be met. Please read and think about the wording for each division and each category. If you have a suggestion, please email either of us and let us know what your thoughts are. If there are no changes made, then our Entry Form will read as is. Thank you for your time.
