if you are a local kw crafter perhaps this new group would interest you. its casual, but thats the point where everything wonderful begins.
It’s a good old stitch and bitch group! All are welcome to come and learn from and teach each other in the ways of knitting, crochet, and anything else that involves stitching or crafting.
I’ve been finding that stitching in public is a great way to socialize, make connections with people and to learn at the same time!
I am open to teaching those of you to knit or crochet who would like to learn…perhaps in return for bringing snackage to my house?
Come and learn to stitch, and learn new stitches!

dont miss your chance to shop from over 40 artist and enjoy the wonderful outdoor setting that fall brings. Saturday November 7th is the annual Frederick Art Walk, and this year they have twice as many artists involved. myself of course will be selling at 21 Samuel st, but new this year is the KidKraft group. Children of the arists got together to make gift items of their own like cards, wrap, tags and ornaments to sell. in good holiday cheer they will then donate all their sales to cancer research. i had to choke back a tear when i heard the oldest child talking about their decision, and her explanation for the younger kids as to what cancer was — and that one day there will be a cure.
join the facebook event to meet the artists, or check out the shows site

(i participated in this show last year. there is a mix of vendors as it is a small show. great for beginners and thats why i personally went… to get some experience under my belt at a really low cost. but then again, a great fee is good for anyone. the more great artist we have, the more shoppers we could pull in, and the more income we will all make. either way… UROCK will be there. hope to see you too)
