Every Tuesday at Stitch 'n Bitch is a fun evening and it often gets a bit crazy. We laugh...a lot, and tease, and share and laugh some more. It's a great group of grrls that come to the meetings. Last Tuesday was especially fun as we had several birthday's to celebrate. Eliza's birthday was yesterday, Valoree's was last week and Michaele's is the early part of May (she'll be in Italy for her big day, poor grrl). 
Susan has been dyeing up a storm and naming the yarns for someone in our group. Valoree received the "Margene" yarn and another beautiful yarn in a celery color was dyed for Eliza. I'm not sure who it was named after, however. Susan also gave Val and Michaele each a pair of hand knit sock earrings. They are tiny but, oh so chic, eh?

Michaele gave yarn cupcakes to Gwen (her birthday was in March), Val and Eliza...candles and all! Now that's a good idea!
Our 'Crazy for Harry' grrl, Teri, has been entertaining us with the Adventures of Lego Snape. Laurie has missed out on his visits and so, she had a moment of quiet communion with Mr. Snape. Unfortunately, Teri met up with a misadventure of her own and got stuck behind the couch! Snape was quick to help her out of the jam.
This weekend the SnB grrls are getting together for 'high tea'...avec HATS (no red hats allowed) at the Beehive Tea Room! I know ya'll come back next week to hear about that adventure. Everyone is invited!
To finish up the month of April for Project Spectrum here are the last few pictures of yellow and orange. First...hey Dave! I bought an orange T-shirt. Cool enough? (He told me I'd be wearing orange before too long.) Second...a PS postcard arrived from Woolarina and it full of flowers and beautiful things in yellow and orange. Cool, too? And last but not least, PS Tulips! How cool is it that they bloomed just in time to show off for Lolly. It's all cool around here;-)
Such a creative group you have there! Aren't tulips great? They look at me, whimper quietly, and decide never to come up again, so I've given up planting them, but I do so admire other people's.

You guys look like you have way too much fun to actually be knitting! Lovely tulips!

What a rowdy bunch! Who'd expect anything else with Lego Snape in the mix?

Love love the tulips! Glad to see you got Paula's card too :)
Have a beautiful day~

Ayuh, no actual knitting gets done on these nights, does it? Love the t-shirt and the postcard, and your tulips are wayyyyy ahead of mine!

I love the idea of yarn cupcakes. Sounds much kinder to the hips.

Oh what fun! I have the same variety of tulips and mine are also blooming in full glory just now! Love spring flowers and can't have enough bulbs hidden away in the ground! I will start Eleanora today and use your provisional cast on method, Margene!

Sounds like your SnB is as fun as ours. :-)

You wild and crazy grrrrls with your Legos and your yarn cupcakes!
There's a really pretty sock underneath Lego Snape; whose is that?
Posted by: Beth S. | April 27, 2006 at 08:26 AM
All good - all FUN! And such a pretty PS Postcard and tulips!

Your group sounds like a lot of fun! And those tulips are beautiful! Yay, Spring!

Looks like you girls had a blast. Do you bring easy knitting on these nights? I know I have to when I go to my SnB, otherwise I end up ripping when I get home. ;)
Posted by: Karen | April 27, 2006 at 08:50 AM
Looks like a blast. And high tea sounds fabulous.

Margene, I just read Sara's Wednesday post about process and thought about you -- if you haven't see it yet: http://saralamb.blogspot.com/

And, no calories in yarn cupcakes! (Or points, as we Weight Watchers people say.)
Posted by: Judy H. | April 27, 2006 at 09:03 AM
Tuesday was a blast! I am so lucky to have you all as friends!
On a serious note - I think I am going to have to start wearing makeup on Tuesday nights. Boy, am I shiny!
Posted by: eliza | April 27, 2006 at 10:20 AM
Sounds like a great group of grrls!
Posted by: Imbrium | April 27, 2006 at 10:58 AM
You guys always have such a wonderful time! I'm quite jealous you know.
Posted by: Rebekah | April 27, 2006 at 12:26 PM
The tulips are a great find for Project Spectrum. Glad you grrls know how to have such a good time!

This makes me wish that my hubby didn't work nights. I just moved to Utah in November and don't have anyone to hang out with. You girls look like you have a fabulous time!
