March madness continued...
On Saturday more than 20 members of BSKG made the trip to the Detroit Public Library to hear the Yarn Harlot ~ Stephanie Pearl-McPhee ~ speak. Our very own Kelley Kencil planned the event. Vendors were set up at 11 to sell their wares, including two of our own: Tanya with lots of her goodies, plus hand-dyed yarn by LindLu. Stephanie had us all laughing out loud! She is a funny lady and a great knitter!
March madness
It all started with our March guild meeting. As usual we had [lots of] wonderful raffle items... which I didn't get the list of. :-( Two lucky winners won free retreat trips, too. Joan Sheridan, owner of Heritage Spinning & Weaving, was our guest speaker. She taught us about Rigid Heddle Weaving showing us how to do it and some results.
lots of March lambs
Happy Birthday to all the March lambs: Pat Baker, Kim Whelan, Suzanne Jones, Sue Waid, Judith Davis, Linda Dean, Kathleen Pawlik, Kim Thorsen, Ellen Rancilio and Laurie Goodman.
For those that weren't at Panera a couple of weeks ago - here's a darling baby blanket Laurie made!
We are sorry to report that there will be no rescheduling of the February Guild meeting; we are not able to use the church this week, and anything later would get too close to the next meeting.
Since we had such fun things planned, we are going to simply drop this meeting in it's entirety into the October 2010 slot!
The only things that will not be held off are Nancy Browns mini lesson and the Retreat Admission Raffle; both of these will take place at the March meeting, so bring your knitting ready to learn the Kitchner Stitch and bring extra cash to buy a chance to win a BSKG Retreat admission!!!

BSKG meeting cancelled
Looking at the snow coming down, it's been decided to cancel tonight's BSKG meeting. While getting there would be OK, it might be difficult when it's time to leave
Kim & Rita are looking at a new date; possibly next week. We'll let you know!
