3rd Annual!

It appears this is the month for the Pot Lucks and the Sew Many Quilts, Sew Little Time Monday group had theirs yesterday!!!!  Oh my what a feast - from stuffed pork to meatballs, to quiche and tortierre and 3 kinds of salad along with punch, desserts to die for - it was absolutely delicious!

This is the 3rd year they've put on the Pot Luck and they outdo themselves each year - of course, then there's the Secret Santa gift exchange which is so much fun - you even get to steal a gift if you want.....here we are just having a great time together......

 Leeann starting off the festivities.....

 Elaine opening a great gift.....

 Gillian making a tough choice......

It was a great party and we all had a wonderful time, I'm not sure we got alot of sewing done......

Last week Sandy came by with another quilt for AAjfe - her Turning Twenty which really looks fresh in blues and yellows!!!!

 Here's an up close of the great quilting Sandy does!!!  She does a fabulous job - this one's an allover design but you should see her custom stuff!!! Phenomenal!!!

One of my customers came by this weekend with a great quilt idea!!!!  She took a large piece of silk and quilted her dad's ties onto it!!!  They are all silk ties - she is going to use silk batting and backing - I thought it was really cool not to mention a great keepsake for the family......

There's alot happening at the store - we're "renovating", rearranging and getting ready for a little Merchant Mall we're doing on Wednesday December 14th at the Yorkshire Rose Quilters Guild at their meeting.

We're also getting ready for the GREAT REVEAL of this year's Christmas Club Quilts on Saturday December 17th at 11:00 A.M. - we'll be introducing next year's choices for the Christmas Club......there are two this time!  (They couldn't agree on just one - lol)  Come and join us for the REVEAL - there might be a cookie and a cup of tea for you there too!

I've got a lot to do before then so I'm off to get it all done!

Happy Quilting!

Jo-Ann
