Greetings!   

 

Lots of fun stuff coming up this month!

The Minnesota Rollergirls have their Charity Knitting event this Saturday; we're participating in the Minneapolis Institute of Arts Crafterhours event October 20

 

And of course there's Halloween - what are you dressing up as this year?

 

We're getting ready for the OYW 2 (Fabric-by-Fabric) Release Party, November 19 - more details in November, so mark your calendars!

 

Have you heard? The No Coast Craft-o-Rama vendors have been selected and are up on the nocoastcraft.com website; don't forget to save your pennies for that event December 2 & 3!

 

Just a reminder, Craft n' Chat is now just on the FIRST TUESDAY of each month, 7-9pm.
