Any knitting designers who are also buffistas?
Because the call for entries for Jane Austin Knits 2012 has just been posted.
For an idea as to what is in Jane Austen Knits 2011.
Hear Ye Hear Ye
Voting is now open for the following proposal:

(questions should be posted in Bureaucracy)
So it's National Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Please check out this awesome video of Navajo ladies from the Winslow Indian Health Care Centers dancing to Katy Perry for the Pink Glove Dance Competition. Then make sure to like the video to vote for them so they can win funding for the Cancer Centers of Northern Arizona. The clinics featured in the video, Winslow and Leupp, serve the exact areas where I work. Our population is low, so it's going to take lots of you guys outside of the area to vote for them and share the video on social media. [link]
The episode of Nikita tonight was written by Kristen. Tune in!
And captioned by my company, too!
Vote results!
Yes: 40
No: 2
The proposal passes.
And since that vote passed, it’s time to start the 2012 F2F process! West coasters, it’s your year. You have between now and November 20th to sell us on why your city is the city we should gather in next spring/summer. Post your initial interest, do your research to give us some hotel options (or just pick the best one and focus on it), and decide which two weekends you would like to propose to go with your city. We will vote at the end of November. (I didn’t realize that with the shift in dates the week we’d said we’d vote this year is Thanksgiving--we should probably wait until the following week to vote.)
PIMP YOUR WEST COAST CITY, BUFFISTAS!
All discussion will take place in F2F. If you’re interested in potentially attending the F2F next year, you may want to subscribe to the thread during this month to participate in (or just observe) the conversation.
Those of you who have been in Bitches and the Delurker threads recently may have seen that our dear Deena has been having a difficult time of it lately. Her health has gotten much worse and she has had to shut down Drollerie Press and stop working as a result. So, a few of us have evilly conspired to try to do something nice for her to cheer her. I will be collecting funds through paypal at my profile address through November 1st. If anyone wishes to send me a check, please e-mail me for my home address.
Discussion of what exactly we should send will continue in Bitches. Deena, if you're still lurking, don't peek if you want to be surprised.
Whoa! Totally wrong thread. Apologies and moved to Beep Me.
