Christmas party!

Ann T wore her Christmas Stocking Vest and won a prize for it! Apparently, she gave up on making the stockings and turned what she had into a vest!
 

Leanne with her mind blowing OSD church. It even had a candle inside.

Leanne used her Heather K. pattern to make this mat. Leanne will be teaching a workshop on this technique in 2026. 

Hope brought in several items she has been working on: a table runner, a lined bag, and a button pincushion. 

Trisha told us she made 25 potholders, 25 pouches, and 25 credit card holders for her son's staff at work. 

Diane made a wall hanging that is based on a poem by Keats. 

 

Kat has been really busy! She made place mats, potholders, aprons, and a casserole carrier.

 

Donna M has been busy,too.  She made three tablerunners-one from Cut Loose Press called Illusionary, another from a pattern from Bolt Quilt Shop, and a third Flying Geese pattern by Betty Rowley. Donna also made potholders after watching "4 DIY pot holder methods that can change your kitchen forever" by Becca Sews on YouTube. 

Brenda is making the Easy Peasy Table Runner which Kat helped her with. 

Jean and Leanne...not sure what is happening here, but it looks festive!

Beth (me) showed her Kathy Schmitz "Merry Little Christmas" wall hanging.

 

Lori has made several different neck wraps, each one with a different theme This one is for Christmas. All her own designs.

 

Anne T. told us prior to our gathering that a family near her had lost their house in a fire recently. We sorted through our stash of donations and came up with numerous quilts that we thought were just right for each member of that family. 

Anne will deliver the quilts to the family. 

Here we are "Rocking around the Christmas Tree" and choosing our Tacoma gift. 

Lots of goodies to eat!

Christmas decorations a happy Tacoma party goers!
