September 11 Meeting

Hello, crocheters! Our September meeting is coming up on Sunday the 11th. We welcome crocheters of all skill levels, please feel free to come try out a meeting. This month, let's talk about what our favorite yarns are. Maybe you love it because it's inexpensive and comes in a zillion colors. Maybe you love it because you found just the right project to highlight it's best qualities. Maybe you spun or dyed it yourself. And maybe it's so lovely and decadent that you haven't found just the right project for it yet. Whatever the reason, bring a sample and make us fall in love with it too!

Bring a project to work on andthose finished projects to show of to an incredibly appreciative audience. New to crochet and don't have something to show? No worries, we'd be happy to see your knitting/tatting/weaving/spinning/other fiber art too!

Those interested in officially joining the guild, remember we will be collecting our annual dues this month.

August 14, 2011 Meeting

Instead of meeting at Yarntopia this month we will be meeting at the Bolli Brothers Pizza in the same shopping center, just two doors down.

We will be discussing some guild business and the program this month is to bring your favorite crochet book(s) and give a mini-review as to why you love them. We'll pass them around and maybe we'll all be adding some items to our book wish list!

As always, crocheters of all levels welcome. Hope to see you there!

March Meeting

Sorry for the delay here.  After talking with Kimberly, Amy aka Lola, and Debra, we have decided to host the multi guild meeting this month at Ikea in Houston.  It is centrally located and has a large area in the cafe where we can sit and crochet.  The food (including desert) is good and cheap.  I have invited our friends from Humble along with the folks from H-Town Crocheters.

We will meet at our usual day and time - March 21st from 2-4.

Hope to see you there.

2010 WSCG Meetings

Good afternoon all! I wanted to ask whether we will be doing 2nd or 3rd Sundays in 2010 for our meetings? I am trying to be good and get them set up on Facebook...

Thanks!

Freeform Fun

Just wanted to show that I can finish projects - few and far between as they seem to be. I'm constantly knitting or crocheting but seem to have so little to show for it.

I wore this scarf over the weekend. I LOVE it.

5 days and counting - see you all Sunday!

Me Again

The Yahoo Group is set up - head on over to join.

Thankful

I am thankful for yarn, knitting and crochet because they have led me to some of the nicest people in the world.

I'm going to try a Yahoo! group for us. That seems to be a little more interactive than the blog as postings get sent to members. I'm not going to make it a closed group 'cuz we want our info to reach the largest audience possible.

I wrote on the CGOA group that I am going to move the all Houston gathering to March to coincide with NaCroMo. This also gives us more time to plan. I am looking forward to the group next week and hope we have a full turn out.

Anyone up for charity crochet in January? I'd love for us to gather a collection of scarves for the vets in VA facilities around the country. Check out their site and think about it. Soft acrylic or acrylic blend yarns are perfect so the cost is reasonable. I have copies of the patterns and will bring them with me so we can talk about it. This is near and dear to my heart and I'd love to give back to these folks.
