were a great success..... I managed to complete several items..... many of these were ufo's... now the are quilting ufo's - LOL. The picture at right is of the items that I was able to finish. I am especially thrilled with my "Pokey Little Puppy" quilt. This was my favorite book when I was a child - I still have my original copy - and I how have a quilt to pass on to a grandchild one day. I bought another copy of the book to go with the quilt.
One of the retreats celebrated a 10th Anniversary and because I was one of the original organizers 10 years ago, I donated a quilt to be raffled amongst the attendees. It was certainly fitting that one of the organizers, Miryam, won the quilt AND her mom, Pjam, is one of the original attendees also.... I was so happy to share this with her.
One of our attendees, Becky, passed away earlier this year. We held a silent auction and donated the proceeds to one of her favorite charities in Athlanta, Georgia. We raised $1000.00.
Bingo fun!!!! and my good friend Shirley busy working on her amazing landscapes!
Thought for the Day
Knowledge is not the same as wisdom
wisdom is the application of knowledge
