Special thanks goes out to the program co-chairs for planning this event.
And an extra special thanks to the shops that participated!
Virginia and Dixie started out the night manning the Opportunity "booth" and did a great job with the special - for $10 you got 12.
Sheila with Sew Country, from Belleville had some great embroidery projects and table runners. Loved the giraffee panel for tracking growth spurts for your little ones. And did you see that turkey? Of course there was also the witchy poo stuff.
Karalee with No Place Like Home, from Minneapolis had her tables full of wonderful patterns and projects.
Karen with All About Quilts, from Manhattan showed us a new batting - recyclable - and very soft. Lots of ideas going on here for all of us. Did you see that circle ruler?
The ladies with Quilters Yard, from Junction City had a great selection of Marcus Bro. wool, not to mention all of their patterns and books.
Lucky Charm Quilts, from Chapman had some fantastic new fabrics - decisions, decisions, decisions?
Luann with Hidden Treasures Quilt Shop, from Mankato brought some wonderful charm packs, patterns and samples for everyone to drool over.
As you can see, shoppers had a blast. Looking was almost as fun as
buying! Okay, maybe not as much. But then it is hard to stay within your budget when winter's coming on and you need those projects to keep you busy.
Some of our shoppers did not tire out their feet as they went around and looked at what was to offer.
Dixie brought in her quilt for grandson Silas, as it is a marriage present and will be long gone before next month. Parts of Kerwin's clothes are included (jeans and shirts). This will be an extra special treat for Mr. & Mrs. Silas.
Verna Lee and Dixie finished up the night at the Opportunity Quilt booth. Thank you to those that turned in their money and tickets. Thank you to all of our guests and visitors that bought opportunities. Think the farthest away so far is the Carolina's.
If you have not finished your 2014 Guild Challenge for the 10th Birthday celebration - you still have time.
You still have time to sell more tickets also - November is the deadline to have all monies and tickets in as we will be drawing at that meeting.
Have a safe month, enjoy Piotique!
