Dinner and Gift Exchange

The Monday Night Divas Bee met for Dinner at Saltgrass Steakhouse and our annual Gift Exchange.  Getting eleven ladies together during the holidays is difficult, so we opted for January.  Good food and laughter with friends is always time well spent.

These are the gift bags that I gave to each Diva.  

Each one contains a fat quarter, a notebook that I made and a wax fabric marker.

I, also, created the flowers from book pages and spray ink.

Golfing Quilt Anyone

One of my BF had a 60th Birthday Party for her DH.  He loves to golf.  I went on the hunt for golfing fabric in person and online.  I see it everywhere now.  I wonder if I had anything to do with that.  By the time I got the fabric in my hand, I had to go into rush mode.  I used the pattern "Take Five" and it went together easily and made a nice lap size quilt.  He seemed to really like it.

As I said, I was in a hurry, so I just turned the backing to the front and hand stitched it down as the binding.  I love a good double fold binding, hand stitched to the back, but it wasn't to be this time.

The back.
