Knit Night Friday, March 21, 2015

What a lovely night we had!  These kitties love to eat.  We had some delightful food.  Fish, Chicken, Green Beans, Rice Casserole, Cottage Cheese, Broccoli Salad, Cranberry Salad, Croissants, Pecan Pie, Coconut Tea Cakes - lovely!

Alas, only Angie Kitty made any progress in the sewing room.  She is working on some beautiful pillow cases.  But fear not!  Coats are on the agenda for Angie, Tammy, & Denise!  And of course, Woodina will be making her long forgotten apron and some lovely zip bags for the big wedding!

This is the first post in years!

In attendance tonight:

Angie
June Bug
Woodina
Queen Kitty
Garland
Sam
Mecca
Sarah
Carly
Jessie
Hadley (our newest Kitty)
Donald
Bill

We missed Tammy, Shane, Denise, Dane & Haley

This is just a warm up of posts to come!

We need to revive this blog!

Hi Kitty Kitties, I just wanted to find our blog spot and see where we left off. I will try to keep it updated now that we have so many projects to share!
More soon! Angie Kitty

Community Afghan, Crocheting, Quilting, Doing Hair

Here is a photo of Mecca celebrating her birthday with the kittens! This was February 4, 2011!



On Feb 18, 2011 we had some fun on Knit Night!

Woodina is moving along nicely on our community quilt! She is really enjoying the project. I wish I had a picture to post, but she has added a lovely red, and is planning to add wisteria - a soft muted lavender.

Sarah has perfected her crocheting and showed up with a beautiful start to her pink blanket. She left us on Feb 11 as a determined crocheter! Now she has beautiful stitches! Sarah, send us a picture.

We almost had some purple hair -! And, we discussed doing some spiral curls with a curling wand! Oh what talents we all bring to Knit Night! Thanks, Sarah!

Denise brought some abasolutely stunning quilt projects to share. My favorite is the Civil War quilt from a "Quilt of the Month" project. Each square has some real Civil War history. Denise send some pictures and I'll post them.

She also shared a great idea for a community knitting/crocheting an afghan project. I think it can work for us after we get the current project finished (with Woodina on it, it won't be long). It works like this: Everyone starts their own afghan and places the project with their own yarn in a plastic tote box. Each knit night or designated time (maybe every 2 weeks) you pass the boxes on to someone else to do so many inches/rows/squares on the project in the box. Well, it is hard to explain here, but I think it is a great idea. Denise can share more on this.

My granny square scarf is coming along nicely. It actually has inspired me to crochet at least one square every night - to be productive with my needlework.

I ordered a couple of really good needlework books on Amazon. I'll tell you all about them this Friday night.

I think I am making a Baked Omelet for this Friday night!

I hope all our knitting kittens are well and can make it this Friday.

Okay, I am going to close this post and publish it. I already lost the first attempt at this post - it was long and good and the website lost it before it was saved ughhhhhhhhhhhh!
