Cute as a Button!

The table centerpieces are all made and ready to spruce up the tables at our annual "Hands Across the Water" event, which is being held TODAY!  They are cute as a button...
 Approximately sixty Gulf Island Quilters are expected to attend...bringing our numbers to over 120 quilters!  We will be serving breakfast and lunch, vendors will be present and workshops will be offered, and thanks to Pat and other donors, we have TONS of prizes to be won...and of course there will be plenty of SHOW AND TELL!  It's always fun to sit with new quilters and talk quilting while breaking bread!
 Oh, and I won't forget my camera... so be prepared for lots of quilty goodness throughout the week!
I had such fun collecting all of these little white jugs and containers for the centerpieces...they are filled with succulents and button flowers!  Perfect for any Quilters' get together!


 Yup...We're 'buttoned up' and raring to go!!  So best get the party rolling...we have set up time for 8:15am!  Yikes, that's a little too close to being a 'work day'!  haha


SEW we will see you tomorrow for the scoop!

Have a magical Monday and Happy Stitching~P
