			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today we had our first ever officially unofficial <strong>ames c.art</strong> event! A mending workshop at the <a href="http://www.amesprogressive.org">Ames Progressive office</a>. It was a lot of fun and everyone brought something to work on.<br />
<a title="pants mending by ames c.art, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/amescart/3713898241/"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3446/3713898241_81bc08f5c8.jpg" alt="pants mending" width="500" height="333" /></a></p>
<p>Seems like the pockets are always getting torn off Jason&#8217;s jeans. Extensive mending and patching was executed.</p>
<p><a title="darning by ames c.art, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/amescart/3713903133/"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3458/3713903133_0e9a593313.jpg" alt="darning" width="500" height="333" /></a></p>
<p>See the darned spot? nope, me neither! And that&#8217;s the point. 3 pairs of socks now ready for feet!</p>
<p><a title="mending by ames c.art, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/amescart/3714716564/"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2476/3714716564_9dcc0f7b76.jpg" alt="mending" width="500" height="402" /></a></p>
<p>usually it&#8217;s the dog carrying around the toy that looks like a cat, well, in this case it&#8217;s sarah&#8217;s cat that carries around a little dog &#8211; a proceeds to claw it&#8217;s guts out. Favorite cat toy now ready to be re-gutted all over again!</p>
<p><a title="books books by ames c.art, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/amescart/3713898871/"><img src="http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3476/3713898871_11b82bf0c2.jpg" alt="books books" width="500" height="333" /></a></p>
<p>I brought a whole slew of books to look through and browse and chat about. zines brought back from San Francisco, collected over the years, and newly acquired.</p>
<p><a title="flier fun by ames c.art, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/amescart/3714754634/"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2667/3714754634_eef72232d9.jpg" alt="flier fun" width="500" height="333" /></a><br />
<strong>Ames c.art</strong> fliers at the <a href="http://www.amesprogressive.org">ames progressive</a>. You can download fliers to print out and distribute <a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/amescart/3712411008/in/set-72157621353813454">here</a>. More fliers coming soon! I just printed these off on graph paper, cut them down a bit, and then fixed them to 1/4 page pieces of card stock to hand out &#8211; print on anything you want and give them to friends &#8211; make them your own by jazzing them up, or get them out there on some white printer paper &#8211; main thing is to just have fun, spread the word, and help make <strong>ames c.art</strong> a success. Thank you for spreading the word!</p>
<p>And it was so great to meet/remeet/collaorate/chat with all of you! Look to <a href="http://amescart.org/?page_id=89">the calendar</a> and <a href="http://amescart.org/?cat=1">the news blog</a> for more information on upcoming ames c.art events!</p>
