Book Review


Friday night I picked up "Crochet Stitch Motifs" from Harmony Guides. I've already worked one square out of it and I have to say, its a lovely thing-not the square-the book. It has both written instructions AND the diagrams. There are some motifs I've never seen before(which isn't saying much really). The book is beautifully laid out and the samples are in lovely colors that just make you want to hook them up.
Also, unlike some other motif books, ALL of the instructions and diagrams are printed in black so you're not left guessing with a yellow diagram on white paper.
There's even a section (albeit small) on Irish Lace.
$22.95 @ B&N

March 15, 2009: First Meeting

At our first offical meeting at Dunn Bros, we....crocheted, and talked. No new business was discussed, no decisions made, and no motions put to the group.
Attendees: Amy, Bethel, Debra, and Leslie
Special props go out to Leslie for driving all the way from Town & Country just to sit and hook with us. Maybe we can discuss at some point finding a more central location.
A good time was had by all. Ok, that's just a guess, but I had a good time at a time when I really needed the comraderie.
Next meeting: April 19th, 2-4 at Dunn Bros. Debra will NOT be drinking the coffee at this meeting........
I took pictures which I am holding hostage...yarn will be acceptable payment for me NOT to post them. HAHAHA
See y'all around the 'hood!
