An Awesome Surprise

 Last night I finally had the 

opportunity to attend my local quilting guild meeting,

The League of Northern Colorado Quilters.

Everyone was feeling festive

with Christmas quilts on display

and wonderful food for a holiday potluck.

Local guilds are important groups to support.

They help to bind the quilting community together

and spread the love and joy of quilt making to others.

 They give the opportunity for us to see and 

learn new techniques, that we might not otherwise

be exposed to.

Last night LNCQ had their first raffle 

quilt drawing.

And believe it or not,

 my name was drawn!

 

 "Ocean Paradise"

What a wonderful holiday surprise,

made by many of my long time friends 

from the guild. 

 This batik queen size quilt is a 

delightful mixture of shades of blue and green,

truly feeling like a topical paradise.

But wait...

this tropical quilt will

 soon be covered with snow.

The snow clouds are starting to roll over

the foothills bringing a major snow

storm my way today.

Thanks again to my many friends

who with skilled hands made this quilt.

I'm honored to have it.

Until Next Time-
