December Potluck

Our December Potluck was at Nancy's new house, Thanks Nancy!

we played a game with white elephant gifts, and enjoyed an evening with friends.

November Meeting

Sally and Sharon

Maryann, Verilette, and Nancy

We made hats. or started hats. A few people brought in the round knitting frames, and people were able to get hats started.

October Meeting

The October meeting featured kumihimo. I am looking for photos, but I can't remember if I had my camera that evening. Can anyone jog my memory?

dusting off the blog!

yikes! someone has been neglecting the blog!
OK, so I have had a few things to do this fall/winter. I will post a few times to get past meetings in chronological order.
we have some fun stuff coming up, a class through Buffalo community education, baby animal fair May 1st, WWKIP day-sometime in June, and all of our regular meetings.
I look forward to seeing everyone next month!

July Meeting

Tonights meeting was at 6:30pm in the Gazebo (taking advantage of the wonderful weather) at the Parkview Care Center.

We made felted frisbees. We had a wonderful turnout, including some kids. Thanks to Barb Mainquist for teaching us, bringing supplies, and being so flexible, because she just found out about it on Wednesday, oops.

Thanks to Dennis Matter for also providing fleece.

Photos to come soon...(ed. photos here! enjoy!)

June meeting?

Somehow, the June meeting fell under the radar. I have lovely photos, and I will post them, (ed. posted!) including the ones with my finished inkle band made with my painted warp.

Thursday June 3rd we did warp painting in the gazebo in the center courtyard at Parkview Care Center. We had a wonderful turnout, Thanks to Sally Stinson for bringing the dyes, and other supplies.
