Saturday Quilting - December

Well our last quilting meeting for 2011 - and it really does only seem like five minutes since we last met!!!  Another fun filled day of laughter, eating and of course a bit of sewing!

All the QQ where in attendance for our last quilting meet - CB had put the Christmas decorations up to get everyone in the Christmas spirit - now don't tell anyone but the decorations where put up at the end of November!!!  Well we all know when you work full time and have a time consuming hobby  - when you have an hour free you need to utilise that hour to full capacity - no one will ever know that that hour was a November hour and not a December hour!!!

Chatting, quilting and signing along to our Christmas CD's were in abundance today ....
