Scissor Squadders Unite amidst Stitch's Busiest Week in Recent Memory
Wow. We had our very first craft-together last night and it was F-U-N! We are a rowdy raucous bunch and I wouldn't have it any other way. I was a little worried that my sis and I would be the loudmouths and we'd scare people, but we were just part of the gang last night! It is soooooo awesome to get together with people close to your age that are creative - I came away with a gazillion (shut up - it's a number!) ideas last night for new things to make..... While we were hangin out, I finished knitting Pia! Only blocking and seaming to go!!!!
We even had a guy attend! We told him he is our male Stitch Bitch! Isaac, Melissa's sweetheart, tagged along for the evening and ended up making two pairs of earrings (one for moi!!!) - we declared him the manliest man we know! Secure enough in his masculinity to hang around a buncha gabbing girlies and make his girl some dangly earrings to boot. He so rocks.
We took a buncha pictures - hopefully I'll get them posted tonight or tomorrow! You can take a look at our sexy mugs :) What a great idea to have the first meeting in a bar - it wa really fun and totally relaxed. Still pondering locations for next week's meeting.... Thinking cap - on.
Tonight it's off to Rosh Hashana dinner at Jamie's mama's house.... I get to meet Papa Dave, the 91 year old patriarch of his family. A little bit scared I am. Deep breaths, girl. Deep breaths.
And tomorrow, my Pop is in town for a sweet but brief visit before he heads back to Florida Friday morning. He is taking my fella and I out to dinner - yipee! I get to pick the restaurant ..... Thinking cap - on.
So a busy week here in the land of Stitch. This weekend will surely be spent on the couch knitting while watching Samurai movies. :)
