A fun surprise

Thursday night was the first monthly LSSK meetup.  I was the last to arrive due to coming from work, and boy was I surprised when I sat down and everyone sang Happy Birthday to me!!!  Laura baked a cake which was YUMMY and she bought me some tea - how sweet!  The first 2 pics are me and Laura and the third is my tasty meal.

Unfortunately Laura had to leave early, but once we had thoroughly enjoyed the cake, we took the time to take pictures of the attendees to share with the ladies in other parts of the state.  Here’s Nancy and Vicki:

Joan Sr. helping Lynn with some crochet:

Unfortunately I didn’t get a pic of Joan Jr. (she was shopping during photo time), but she brough a beautiful quilt that she was almost done with made of yo-yo’s (I think that’s what they’re called).  It was so neat because although they were made of every color and all different fabrics, she arrange them to make it predominantly red and white and blue sections.  It was very cool.

I worked on Hopeful - trying to finish up by Sunday.  It’s gonna be close.  We discussed the length of the sleeves and there still seems to be a lot of split opinions.  I’m hoping that once I’m done with the collar it will be obvious which looks better.
