Join us at our annual Holiday Party and ornament exchange! Start your stitching early on either an ornament or a needlework small to exchange at the meeting. If you'd like, bring along a favorite holiday treat to share. The party will once again be at the home of Mary Ann Anderson.

Highlights

We had a wonderful time at our annual holiday party. There was a wide variety of treats set out in Mary Ann's kitchen for us to enjoy.

We enjoyed talking with one another and eating the goodies that everyone brought. Mary Ann invited us to wander around and see the new samplers she had completed since last year's party.

We all gathered in the living room, some in chairs and some on the stairs. There was a short business meeting followed by the ornament exchange.

This year, there were 9 ornaments, all different and beautifully stitched. If you didn't have the time to stitch one this year, take a close look at the picture for motivation for next year! Click on the pictures below for a larger image.

We had three items for show and tell. Click on the links below for a description and picture.
