Friday in review

We got the answer to the poll on Friday night. Seems Suzanne and Kim T. are the same age [but I'm not telling what it is ~ ask them!]. A good time was had by all and Kate has pictures to prove it. Thanks for your hospitality Kate.

Camille sent this message to share "What a lovely evening! Sunny skies, a beautiful home, tasty goodies, great people and knitting. Oh, and I can't neglect to mention the great conversation. In our inimitable BSKG style, our conversations traversed from knitted thongs for EVERYONE to saving the waterways of Michigan.
This birthday was special to me, not because it was a milestone, but a gift. After two car accidents and the death of two of my contemporaries, I have come to recognize just how special a birthday can be.
It was also a honor to share the stage with Judith. Such a giving heart is rare theses days.
So from the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU to everyone - for your company, conversations, cards and gifts. I may not have been the youngest at the party, but I did feel very youthful and I had alot of fun."

March Guild Meeting with Melynda Bernardi

Our guest speaker,  Melynda Bernardi of French Press  Knits, was wonderful! She shared about her background as a knitter, how the name French Press Knits was chosen,  how she started by selling felted slippers and progressed in to writing patterns. Her work is beautiful and she brought several samples to share. Melynda graciously offered a discount on her online patterns for the month of March for our guild members!

BSKG 1st Guest Post

Posted by Kim Whelan  "copyright Geneve Hoffman Photography" I have this friend; maybe you have one like her? She’s the kind of friend that has all these crazy, great ideas, and somehow, before you know it, you’re smack dab in the middle of something! This friend is the reason that I found myself starting a knitting guild (BSKG) with her a few years ago and found myself president of said guild a few years later. She is also the reason that I started designing patterns. I was just drifting along, calmly knitting away when she said “write a pattern, challenge yourself” That is how I came to write my very first pattern “Etta” which appeared in Lace One Skein Wonders . Now writing a pattern didn’t come easy, there were many mistakes along the way, but I stuck with it and finally I had a pattern I was proud to publish on Ravelry. After that first pattern I wrote a few more that I was lucky enough to have printed in some local publications. But that friend of mine,
