Final NFC Meeting

Tuesday was our last Needlecrafts for Charity meeting for this school year.  We reminisced about the past year, reviewed all we had accomplished, and bounced around some ideas for next year.  Lee generously provided pizzas and pop.  Of course, we did get a little knitting done.  Kim taught Jacob how to knit - yay!  a new knitter in our group.  Next year we plan to have a serger, so we can easily create many more projects.  Cat mats (sewn or knitted) and stuffed animals were mentioned as favorite projects for 2012/2013.

I've finished my last book (of 10) for this quarter. It was a fascinating read on eco-fashion.  It's quite sad to discover what is involved in the supply chain for producing a garment. 

I'm continuing to weave each week.  The pin weaving has proven to be quite labor intensive; it's difinitely a good movie watching project.  I'm very curious to see how it will look when finished.

More later......
