January '09 Meeting

Hello everyone,

We had a wonderful turnout at this meeting. We had thirteen people come this time. :) I had such a great time with everyone. We had the meeting the Sanders Library in Sherwood. They were really nice to us and would like us to come back soon. I am going to try to use them again in the future for another meeting or two. Their meeting room was a great size. We had plenty of room to spread out and visit with each other.

We had several new people come to the meeting this time. I finally got to meet Barbara from crochetville.org. I'm so glad she was finally able to make it to one of the meetings. I think she has been trying to come for a year now. She brought her teenage son with her. I'm not to sure if he liked it or not. I hope he wasn't to bored at the meeting. :) We also had Rhonda from the knit and crochet class I had at the Nixon Library. And she was able to bring her mom. We also had Leah bring her mom to the meeting too. I just love it when people are able to get their friends or family to come to the meetings. Our other new person to the meeting was Barbara from ravelry.com. It was really great getting to meet everyone. :) I hope everyone had as good of a time as I did at the meeting.

Here are some photos we took at the meeting:
















I'm going to try and get the meeting room at the Cox Creative Building for our next meeting. I'll call or email them tomorrow. The meeting will be on February 7th though. I'll post the other info as soon as I get the location down.

Well, that's all I've got for this one.

December '08 Meeting

Hello everyone,

Sorry about this post being late. I hope everyone had a great Christmas and New Years! I know the Holidays keep me busy but I had a great time. :)

We had a great time at the December meeting. We had several new people come too. It was so nice meeting everyone. I would like to thank Kelly again for letting us have the meeting there. It was great of her setting it up for us.

I should have taken pictures of the gifts we exchanged at the meeting but I was having to much fun and forgot. I did at least get a group photo. Here it is:


Sorry too about being slow about getting the location for our January meeting. Here's the info for that meeting:

It will be on Jan. 10th from 12 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. at the Sanders Library in Sherwood. The address is 31 Shelby Drive, Sherwood, AR 72120. The road is right off of Kiel Avenue. Here's their phone number if you need directions: 501-835-7756. You can bring your lunch to the meeting to if you want. When you get there just tell them you are there for the crochet and knitting group meeting. They will direct you to the meeting room.

Hope to see you there!
