  December Meeting:  Saturday, December 3rd
(Note: 1st Saturday)
Luncheon and hands-on beading with Linda Berry

Site:  Julia Appell's home (2 Deer Run, Farmington)

Time:  10 am

Directions:  Exit 39 from Rt. 84 becomes Rt. 4 through Farmington.  At the light in the center of the village (at the country club), make a right onto Rt. 10/202 (Waterville Road) heading toward Avon.  Deer Run Road is 1.2 miles on the right.  Go to the center of the circle and take the driveway on the left.  The house is the first on the left.

Schedule:  The class will work until 12:15pm.  At that time, we will drive over to The Grist Mill, a wonderful restaurant on the Farmington River, for a delicious luncheon.  You may have a salad, a choice of four entrees, dessert and coffee or tea.  Wine may be purchased separately if you wish.  Below is some information to peak your interest!

      Whether it is a quite evening out together or celebrating as a group in one of our private dining rooms, you will find that our web site has a wealth of information to assist you in deciding that the Grist Mill is the perfect location for your next dining experience.

Here is a description of the class:
Learn to make a lovely beaded choker or longer necklace in the quick and easy Netting technique.  Linda Berry learned this from Joyce Lukomski, a talented national teacher, and is pleased to share her knowledge with us.  Joyce has given Linda permission to use her instruction diagram and Linda adds her own perspective.  CRVC is treating all participants to the supplies.  You have a choice of the three color combinations shown (from top to bottom):

December class -- color choices       1. Midnight Blue and Jade

2. Chocolate Brown and Antique Gold

3. Midnight Blue and Amethyst

Please sign up and indicate your first and second color choices as soon as possible.  Linda will try and honor your first choice but her supplier may not be able to get your favorite color at the last minute.

Registration:  It is important to make your choices immediately so we can have the supplies you need.  The cost of the day is only $20 because we are subsidizing expenses with our funds on hand.  Celebrate the season and enjoy a wonderful day!
