whoops!

I don't know why these pictures aren't in the previous post ... but here they are:

what a busy night at the October meeting!!

We enjoyed a beautiful trunk show by Erica Proschkow ~ what great examples of her beautiful work! From her first knitting - of doll clothes - to the weaving with Siberian iris leaves and all the gorgeous knitting in between it was definitely exciting and inspiring. A big thanks to Michele Dagenais, Diane Dinisky, Suzanne Jones and Charli Osborne for donating terrific raffle items! The luck recipients were Kara Hamilton - yarn and a handmade bag, Merritt Collins [forgive me, I don't remember the 2nd part of your last name] - sock yarn, Adina Rubenstein - sock yarn, Joan LaForest - sock yarn, Kathleen Hearne - a knitting book, Linda Francisco - sock yarn and a hat pattern, Kate Pulta - sock yarn, and Katy Race - yarn and knitting magazines. Lori Sheffield of Skeins on Main gets a big thank you for sharing the fall trends with us. Everyone enjoyed trying on the Origami sweater ~ we know it will soon be on many BSKG member's needles! Designers that sparked interest: Candace Eis

October meeting...

Our October meeting is Tuesday, October 13, at St. Columban in Birmingham. IMPORTANT CHANGE: Beginning with the October meeting, we cannot enter the church until after 7 p.m. If you arrive before 7 p.m., you will need to wait in your car—we need to be sure that we do not interfere with the group that will be in the church before us, and give them time to finish and leave before we enter. So! Now the doors will open after 7 p.m.,you can check in, buy raffle tickets, and socialize a bit before the meeting starts at 7:30 p.m. October program: Lori Sheffield, co-owner of Skeins on Main in Rochester, is our guest speaker. She will be highlighting fall yarn trends, sharing what is new and exciting in the world of fiber. October will also kickoff our member trunk shows. We want to thank and welcome the members who volunteered to fill the positions we need—their contributions and help will be vital to the guild! • Part of the Secretarial Team—Katy R. • Raffle Coordinator—Suzanne J. • BSKG Mer
