Sit and Stitch at QC – Christmas Party Fun – and SNOW IN MIDLOTHIAN, VA 12 18 09
Posted By drsao on December 18, 2009
Was it just me, or was our show and tell today more festive than usual? It must be that Christmas is in the air and we had lots of SUGAR on the table (that always makes ALL QUILTS look wonderful….:):)
We really had a feast. I think I could have curled up with those cakes and hibernated for the winter…..Cathy’s rum cake and Patsy’s lemon cakes were just fabulous……and I have to try to replicate Sheddy’s chicken cheese dip……and Susan’s chocolate toffee almond crunch…..oh my……sweet memories!
Besides show and tell, eating and laughing, Catherine gave us all Christmas prizes……needles, pin cushions or baby scissors depending on if we turned out to be an A, B, or C person – that was SO SO SO NICE – and we enjoyed watching her make a potholder – yes – a loopy potholder – and as we watched, some of us relived our days of being BROWNIES!!!
And it has been a LONG TIME since I was a Brownie….oh my…..I never thought I would be saying this – but it has been MORE THAN HALF A CENTURY…….good grief – this is an occasion to eat chocolate!!!!! 🙂
Here are some pictures of us having fun at Sit and Stitch – Quilter’s Corner in Midlothian, VA. Many of us left early — in anticipation of the predicted snow storm – and YES – it is SNOWING as we speak!!!! I included a few grandangels in the snow pictures……BEAUTIFUL SNOW!
