 Our Knit Club Christmas Luncheon 2014

On December 8th we got together for a Christmas Luncheon.  This is the hall we use provided by the Cambridge Street Baptist Church which gives us lots of room to "play" with full kitchen facilities and of course washrooms plus free parking area for our cars.  We love it here and feel so blessed to have this available to us for our monthly knit club meeting and knit-ins.

We ordered Swiss Chalet Festive dinners which were delivered so we didn't have to cook or bring anything (except a few brought some lovely dessert goodies)  We have been doing this for the past few luncheons (in June and December) and it really works well for us.

Here are some of the photos I took and as you can see we are having a very good time indeed.

 
This is Krys who made a whole pile of little dolls - one for each of us with the rest going to the Women's Resource Centre - see them in the following photos.  There was a huge bag of dolls in all sizes and shapes - a real labor of love by Krys.
 
 
She is holding another gift for each of us made  by Nancy which was a cute marshmallow with a candy cane in the centre then dipped in chocolate with crushed candy cane applied.  All done up in a bag with a lovely little Merry Christmas card attached. 
 
 
This is Betty holding one of the many dolls made by Krys


Betty brought her place mat made of Christmas cards and then laminated to keep them nice for many years.


Margaret is enjoying her little doll and note Nancy is hiding behind.  Nancy made some great cupcakes and the little marshmallow gifts for each of us.  We are so spoiled.


Here is Nancy's cupcakes and marshmallow treat - aren't they amazing!


Here are more of our members, Bernadette, Marian (hiding), Krys, Mary and Marion
See the little Christmas trees I made for our serviettes for the day.
I gave a little demo so everyone could make one too!


A few more members, Betty, Margaret, Nancy and Pat

So you can see our day was full of laughter, great food and the best group of ladies one could ever ask to be associated with in this world of machine knitting.
 
 

So from my house to yours ~ ~ ~ ~

A year full of wonderful machine knitting adventures!
