Time Flies and Fly Balls

Time honestly does fly. I've completed my first (only half) week of school, and Fall is officially here! That means BSKG meetings are beginning again. You should be receiving a phone call from a board member just as a reminder, but in case you haven't. . .

Guild meetings are on the 2nd Tuesday of each month. We've changed from the 3rd Tuesday, just to keep us a little further away from holidays and other busy times. . .

We've moved our meetings to the Berkley Community Center on Robina, just barely South of Catalpa. . .The Community Center has given us a VERY reasonable price for room rental, and have promised not to bump us around from room to room like we were at the middle school last year.

SOOOO. . .our first meeting is THIS TUESDAY at 7pm. See you there!

Fly Balls. . .
Today is the Tigers Stitch and Pitch game. If you've got tickets and want to car pool. . .meet us at Anderson Middle School around 11:45 and we'll share the cost of gas and parking as well as gossip and laugh all the way there and back!

She shared about her background as a knitter, how the name French Press Knits was chosen,  how she started by selling felted slippers and progressed in to writing patterns. Her work is beautiful and she brought several samples to share. Melynda graciously offered a discount on her online patterns for the month of March for our guild members!

BSKG 1st Guest Post

Posted by Kim Whelan  "copyright Geneve Hoffman Photography" I have this friend; maybe you have one like her? She’s the kind of friend that has all these crazy, great ideas, and somehow, before you know it, you’re smack dab in the middle of something! This friend is the reason that I found myself starting a knitting guild (BSKG) with her a few years ago and found myself president of said guild a few years later. She is also the reason that I started designing patterns. I was just drifting along, calmly knitting away when she said “write a pattern, challenge yourself” That is how I came to write my very first pattern “Etta” which appeared in Lace One Skein Wonders . Now writing a pattern didn’t come easy, there were many mistakes along the way, but I stuck with it and finally I had a pattern I was proud to publish on Ravelry. After that first pattern I wrote a few more that I was lucky enough to have printed in some local publications. But that friend of mine,
