Partying with STITCH

Our festive table exploding with gifts and decorations.

This week was our seventh STITCH holiday party -- hard to believe we've been together that long. It seems like just yesterday that we had our first get together at a coffee shop. For awhile there were 12 of us, then some moved away or dropped out and our dear Barbara passed away this year from cancer.


Karen hosts every December and decorates her home beautifully for us. I always get a photo of the quilt shop in her Christmas village.



This year I brought my selfie stick for a group photo. The top photo is the "good" one and the bottom photo is where I lost control of half of the group. Andrea and Delaine were both feeling under the weather and couldn't be there. 




We stuffed ourselves on good food,
and wine flowed freely.


Here are some of the gifts:



I made bookmarks with some of my painted fabric on the front ...


... and text fabric on the back.


Have a colorful day

I love the needlework shop, and the Dear Santa sign is perfect, especially since you gals really go all out with the yummy food at your gatherings!

It always looks like you have the best time with your art buds! Great idea to use the selfie stick! The one picture came out great! But need more of the food! HA
