In 2009, after looking for a group in the Fairfax City area for sewers/knitters/quilters, etc. and not finding one quite close enough, I figured why not start one? Our group is for people looking to stitch with a group to complete all those projects we've started and not completed, and to gain inspiration from others on new projects. Our group is very diverse in experience level, age, and craft. I think that has led to the most fun! No two meet ups are ever the same.

We are a dynamic group of inspired individuals aged 50 and better (other ages welcome) that are designing our future to include more fun, creativity and vitality in it.

Instead of England's early Sunday dinner, a postchurch ordeal of heavy meats and savory pies, why not a new meal, served around noon, that starts with tea or coffee, marmalade and other breakfast fixtures before moving along to the heavier fare? By eliminating the need to get up early on Sunday, brunch would make life brighter for Saturday-night carousers. It would promote human happiness in other ways as well. Brunch is cheerful, sociable and inciting. It is talk-compelling. It puts you in a go …

Jeanette Blix of Fundametals.net and Cindy Wimmer of Sweet Bead Studio, two jewelry artists, met at a coffee shop and talked wire. They talked about art and jewelry. They talked about growing and advancing their skills. And over a latte and cocoa, they talked about the lack of workshops in the Northern Virginia/DC metropolitan area. “Well this will just not do!”, they decided. And so, ArtBliss was born. ArtBliss is a new series of workshops that encompass jewelry design and mixed media from inte …

Let's get together over coffee and chat about the novels of Susan Howatch, which have been described as follows: In all of these novels there is a meshing of Christianity and psychology, which Howatch uses as a tool to perhaps reach those “who say and think that religion is outdated rubbish.” If you talk to these people in the language of psychology, she says, “then you can say, this is what Christianity is saying. Learn the language." You don't need to be a Christian to enjoy these novels. Ther …

This is a group for people who enjoy intelligent conversation and dining out with new friends.  It is that simple.  To help you decide whether or not this is the right group for you, ask yourself:  Do you enjoy meeting new people? (hint: you don't have to be an extrovert but you do have to get out of the house and actually meet new people) Do you get a lot of bang out of intelligent conversations and intellectual discussions?  Are you getting bored by these inane questions already?  If you answe …

I'd like to get a group of men together 35 to 60 who are divorced and mostly single (ok if you re-married).
