The local quilt group I belong to had its annual Christmas party yesterday. We had a yummy potluck lunch (has anyone ever been to a potluck that *wasn't* yummy? ), followed by a brief business meeting and the optional gift exchange. You know the type: people bring a gift, take a number and then pick a gift from the pile in numerical order.
I took a great-looking bag I found at JoAnn's for quilting stuff, and it was in such a large gift bag that it was picked first. LOL! But I think the gal who got it really liked it. Anyway, I really lucked out, as the gift I picked was a gift certificate to a LQS I don't get to often. How is that lucky? Why, because I'm going there tomorrow to meet up with Lisa Caryl, of course! Great timing, wasn't it?
