Nothing beats a Mixed Craft Club afternoon. I woke up and tidied up the house while Matt made Cheesy Cauliflower and Potato Soup. Coolest. Husband. Ever. And it was deeeeeelicious! We had some crusty bread and butter (the butter wasn't crusty...just the bread) and some snacks for afterwards.I always invite around 10 friends and there are always conflicting schedules and such, so we average around 4-5 women each time. I was thinking today how nicely it always turns out. We have had a different mix of girlfriends each month and it gives us the chance to get to know each other better before a different mix with a different dynamic appears the following month.
But one thing remains the same...good times, good food and good crafts. Alas, it was Jenny's very last MCC since she is moving at the end of next week. We will miss her family a lot, but are excited for their new adventures in North Carolina.
( Jenny and Kirsti working hard at being Crafty. )This month we made Family Photo Books together. I am not quite finished with mine (since I was helping out others), but they turned out great! I also finished up a sewing project and mended a torn pocket on my favorite new hoodie.
( Jenny made this adorable receiving blanket for a friend's baby boy on the way. )You may think I am crazy, but I have seriously been considering finding a larger space for MCC each month. That way we could invite everyone we know! I will have to do some investigating on that one.

We have a craft night once a month at our church building, open to everyone (whether they attend our church or not). It's really fun :).
love that blanket, looks like a rockin' good time. fun!
I'm glad it was so fun!! I'll have to make it next time. BTW I got a recipe from Jaime that is YOUR Cream Tortilini soup. YUMMY. so good, so I'm sure your other soup was delish. :)
If I lived there I'd totally come! That looks like fun
looks like you had fun! would love to join you next time (hint, hint :) ) what about the crop room at the flower and craft warehouse? when we scrapped there before it was free - all we had to do was reserve it ahead of time. a church always works, too....
