The craft club I sponsor at school had its last meeting today. It was a BYOC theme, as in bring your own craft. The idea was that since we are wrapping things up for the semester, members could just bring a project they are working on and get some crafting time in on it. We had members knitting and crocheting on various items. I also brought some of our jewelry making supplies, and we strung up some beaded jewelry. The two hours zipped by!
Since summers are very slow on campus, in fact they even close campus on Fridays, we won’t be meeting over the summer semesters. Hopefully, though, we’ll pick up where we left off when school starts back up in the fall. We have some big plans already such as participating in a campus craft fair and making more items to donate to the needy. I also learned a lot this year about running the group, so I’ve got some ideas about how to organize ourselves a little differently in the fall.

What a fun time you all must have had. I suppose that having time off is a good thing so that you can get revitalized for the next season π

@Cyndi It has been a lot of fun, a lot of work too, but worth it.

I wouldn’t be surprised if you have more students wanting to join come fall. The joy of crafting is sort of contagious, don’t you agree?

@Eileen – Definitely! We had about 12 – 15 in the fall and more like about half that amount came to spring meetings. Fall is always just busier for some reason.
