For those who don't know what the Hat City Scissor Squad or HCSS is, it is a Danbury based craft group founded by my B.F.F.s Mary, Sarah and myself. We have have been meeting every Tuesday at a local bar for the last 4+ years. We currently have over 50 members.
1. It forces me to craft. I know that I will always be crafting at least one night a week.
2. It gives me an excuse to drink booze one night a week.
3. It gives me an excuse to dress up and I LOVE dressing up. The rest of the week, I don't even have a reason to bother.
4. It presents opportunities to me that would not be there with out it.
5. It allows me to make fun of my husband and children to a small audience.
6. It lets me obtain FREE yarn, fabric and craft supplies through our events.
7. I am learning new things about crafting and techniques all the time.
8. GOSSIP! GOSSIP! GOSSIP!
9. It gets me out of the house and away from my children (I love my kids, but God I gotta get away from them sometimes).
10. I have made the BEST group of friends anyone could possibly hope for.
