My quilting group had their Christmas party yesterday, it was at my house and I had fun getting ready for it ! We had wonderful appetizers that everyone brought, I made a Christmas cheer punch and some Hot Apple Cider.
We had a blast with the games, Sue brought ideas for a couple new ones, this one you rolled dice in a pie pan and passed it around fast while the timer ticked off, when you got doubles you grabbed a wrapped gift or stole it from someone. We did a white elephant exchange and another one with cards that when your card was chosen you picked a wrapped gift or stole it. There was alot of stealing going on and alot of laughing !
We played CLR with Fat Quarters...and another round with spools of thread ! These quilters are in to OUR kind of gambling ! I won the fat quarters and Judy won the thread ! What alot of fun !
We had a great dinner, everyone brought such fantastic dishes ! We realized we've been together doing this for 10 years. The 2nd friday of every month is reserved for Thornberry meetings which we take turns hosting.
We exchange names each year and this year I gave this table runner, napkin set and candle to Mindy.
Here are Barb and Judy with the holiday/birthday mat and glass she gave to Barb.
Lorene made this bag for Judy, it has a matching notebook in it !
Barb made this for Lorene, she loved it.
Terry P. gave this to me, I love it !!! You should see the details on it, cute little snowman everywhere ! I can't wait to put it up ! She had Louise quilt it so that means it's amazing !
Lousie gave this to Bobbi, darling little applique.
And Sue gave this to Louise, such tiny blocks, Louise was enchanted to say the least !
Isn't this a cute runner that Mindy made Sue !
What a fun evening, we are waiting for Mindy to send us the names we get for next year so we can start planning. What a fun group of gals, we sure keep each other inspired !
