Our Christmas banquet was held at the All Season's Restaurant and we had a wonderful Chinese/Canadian buffett....hot,cold, tasty,and lots of food...we all rolled home like well stuffed pillows. Here are the ladies anxiously awaiting the great food.
Ha, Jeannie was trying to hide but Dawn figured it out and grinned anyway.
Come on Food!!!!!
Lilliane made this table runner. The Christmas panel is a Norman Rockwell who could do Christmas scenes like no one else.
Hiding behind this wonderful redwork is Vera Turner. I didn't know she did redwork...and so well, too.
Susan Snyder made her Three Dudes table topper and tried her hand at machine quilting. I think she was pleased with how well it turned out.
Here's a gorgeous quilt that reminded me of a Christmas Cactus. It was hand quilted by Susan ....in a HOOP!..Great job, there Susan.
Carolyn has been busy getting ready for Christmas gifting. Here a sweet pair of jammies.
and a cuddle onesie....
another one. Lucky grand kids.
Jean got her Christmas Three Dudes table runner done as well.
Look at that Vivian go! 97 years young and putting us all to shame. What a beautiful table runner she made. Love the colours!
Ethel has a pen pal or is it Secret Santa. She called this a a Humbug bag...kind of neat, don't you think?
She brought her amazing nine patch...teeny tiny nine patches with vines..wonderful!
"Teach" thought it would be politic that she finished her Three Dudes table topper too. Smart girl, Judy.
And she brought her Sampler all quilted and looking great.
Jackie got her 'believe' finished and read to hang.
we all decided this should be called a "Kissing Ball" since it's a little bigger and we all need a kissing ball at Christmas time right....especially since mistletoe doesn't grow in New Brunswick.
Muriel got her folded star ornament finished and brought it to show and tell. Wendy did 10 and didn't realize that we always want to see what quilters and crafters are doing.
Ah the magic of Christmas. Here's Ann's "kooie" instrument. Everytime she said "kooie" the propeller on this board spun in the opposite direction. All right, Ann....how did you do that????
Janice brought this really nice table topper. The colours are perfect and the applique just makes it. She has such good colour sense
Renate modelled her reversible vest. She did a lovely job...as always.
We had a quick game of swap the fat quarter with a few ladies trying to steal the fat quarter that I had already stolen...shame on you ladies. Then Melda MacMillan won the "Last Lady Standing" game by having the most things in her purse...good thing Judy Steeves couldn't make it, no one has ever beat Judy for things in her purse.
Merry Christmas to all and a Happy New Year!
