Our meeting on September 14th was Eileen Howe - Corn Dollys  (Demo)



 Eileen then proceeded to give the history of straw and how it is still important to us to-day.   She then showed many corn dollies followed by making a corn dolly.   The members were then given straw and thread and shown how to make their own corn dolly, which brought laughter and delight at the efforts made.   She was thanked by Jean Waters.
