Stitch and bitch and on and on

I have booked the room next to Petone Library for Monday night's S n B from 7.30 -9.30. We haven't heard back from Plunket yet, so I've made this a one off booking. If we like it, it only costs $9 an hour, but is booked out almost every Monday. Tuesdays are okay, but I'd like to know how everyone feels about days.

We'll need to get a gold coin donation (or a paper one if you happen to be super wealthy and a little crazy) to cover room rental. They have hot water, but no further hot drink supplies, so bring your own cup and tea bag! Or bottle of vodka, depending on your mood.

It is a meeting room, so won't be filled with comfy couches, but I'm optimistic that the dream venue will reveal itself soon.

The entrance to the room is from the Richmond St carpark. NOT the Brittania St side. I guess lights will indicate where we are, and I'll stick a piece of paper on the window.

Jubilation


Hallelujah, yippee, wahoo etc...

Wholly Bagels has arrived in the Hutt! Myrtle St to be precise. The site of the old Couplands Bakery, and pretty close to the mall.

I love it at Wholly Bagels, not just for its food (although I do love that a lot), they also make a good cuppa joe (they're the first place I saw a jug of hot water given with your long black), and are pretty receptive to families.

Stitch again...

God. I have every intention of writing something other than sewing here...

But not today.

I found this cool cross-stitch generator on my mooches around the internet.

And another stitch and bitch post

Laydeees and gennelmen, it is finally time to hook up and hook a rug.

First time stitch and bitch tomorrow. We'll have the first meeting at my house, so if you're a stalker this is an excellent opportunity to case my pad.

We're going to get a venue for the future, and Petone Plunket looks like it, but we need them to draw up a contract first.

All welcome. Feel free to bring food and wine.

You'll need to email me for the address, I'm not completely insane.

Surprise!

Finally a word on this blog.

Nobody ever said it was going to be a daily thing. It will be more like a monthly or annual type site.

Anyhow, in the manner of it all being about Stitch and Bitch...

Stitch and Bitch arrives!

I'm thinking Monday. At my house or somewhere else. Whaddaya reckon?

Email me at wandaharland@gmail.com if you're keen, and I'll let you know the details.
