On the quilting front here at Chez Koch there has been sewing. Some of my friends were interested in the quilts I make and I've taught them to piece tops. I've also gotten a few of them reaquainted with their forgotten passion for knitting. We try to get together once a month from fall to spring for a day of sewing, lunch and scoot to Esther's shop if time permits. It's great to get together with so many talented and enthusiastic friends for a day of fibry indulgence. What a great way to spend a day! We're talking about turning these sewing days into a weekend retreat.
There's a new LYS opened just a short walk from Esther's called Shall We Knit. Karen's store is full of lots of yarny goodness. We're planning a weekend of a pajamas sleep over, great meals, sewing, knitting and carrying on. We have so much fun when we get together ~ there's as much laughing as there is stitching. I have fabulous friends ~ I am truly blessed.
My Magic Loop sock made some progress today during my car knitting time. I'm almost the the heel portion. Will see - the true test if I like the Magic Loop vs. my dpn's will happen between the start of the heel and finishing the gusset... I'll let you know how it goes.

I am quite jealous! None of my friends knit and even if they did we have nowhere this cool to visit. Lucky you!
I'm beginning to think you know all the secrets of the (craft) world! Thank you for introducing me to Esther's store - I can't wait to go back again soon!
What a delightful shop! Some shops are a real treat to visit and I'll always find some treasure - needed or not! Others, I think to myself, they haven't a clue how to create an inviting atmosphere.
You are fortuante to have friends that share your interests :)
oh...what a fun way to spend the day!thanks for sharing your LYS!!
