Crafty Critters dry flowers BY CRISTA VANDEN HOVEN At the fourth meeting of the Crafty Critters members turned the clock back to February and Valentines Day, the day of hearts and flowers. The meeting was opened by president Barb with the 4-H pledge and the minutes were read by Rob Vanden Hoven. The roll call was answered by nam- ing a flower that can be dried. Gerda Vanden Hoven discussed various methods of flower drying and what to dry for the different colours. Then Jeanette Wynja explained the podging tech- nique for those wanting to learn that. They chose their forms from a selection of cats, swans and watering cans. Members enjoyed a relaxing time podging for the reminder of the meet- ing. Those wanting to learn to quilt chose their pauem and started by using a run- ning stitch to outline their design. Before they knew it was time for a snack to end the meeting. These crafts will be completed at the next meeting.
