Miscellaneous Thursday


Yesterday my guild, Calico Cutters celebrated 25 years! We also held our annual auction and luncheon. Members were invited to a postcard swap. This is mine....I did kind of cheat. I made this block for my friend Terry and oriented it the wrong way and had to make another. So I recycled it into a postcard.






These are the postcards that the members made. Aren't they wonderful? I think everyone enjoyed this challenge.


Once again Christine was the auctioneer and she did a wonderful job.


The ladies on the auction committee do such a good job setting up, they make the tables very pretty and we all have a good time.


Our Quiltini group made a basket for the auction and it brought in $145!!


The hunt for a wedding venue has begun, stay tuned!

I almost forgot about this!!!!!
