I was so excited to see so many new faces at our October meeting! We all had a great time getting to know each other, sharing our projects, and helping each other.
A special thanks to the Frederick News Post for coming to our meeting and doing a story about our guild. Keep watch for the article in an upcoming issue.
During our meeting we discussed some ideas for future meetings. We decided to allow volunteers to demonstrate stitches or techniques or to discuss a topic at each meeting. Stephanie has volunteered to demonstrate crocheting in the round for our November meeting. Catherine has offered to demonstrate a way to recycle plastic grocery bags to make a rug for our January meeting. Thank you to both ladies. If you are interested in doing a demonstration or sharing a topic please leave a note in the comments area.
The group also discussed organizing CALs (Crochet-a-longs) and Stephanie has offered to organize them for us. We will discuss options for our first CAL which will begin sometime after the new year. Thank you to everyone who made suggestions and if you have anything in particular you would like us to do as CAL, please post it in the comments area.
Check out our page here on the website. I have posted a slideshow gallery of pictures! If you would like a picture of your project posted, email it to me at smcrocheters@yahoo.com and I will get it posted.
Our next meeting is in November on the 30th. I hope to see everyone there!
