Just got home from partying heartily with the quilt guild members. Tonight was the guild's annual holiday dinner.
Here was the centerpiece for our table:

I'd have enjoyed my baklava more if the nuts had all been shelled. Luckily I am a cautious nibbler where nuts are concerned, so I caught it without having to break a tooth.
We all brought fabric postcards to share. They were quite interesting--some of them were more "postcardy" than others.
After dinner, we played a game with them which involved passing them left and right and getting thoroughly confused. That way, we wound up leaving with a different card than the one we'd brought. 

Some people had more fun than others.
(This group is saying Hi to Amy!)
There were prizes, too. Each table contributed a basket full of quilt-related goodies.
This is the one from our table.
Pretty hefty basket--loads of fabric.
There are pictures of the other baskets, as well as other table centerpieces and more postcards on my Flickr page--click on the badge on the right to get there.
Usually the winner is someone who needs to be notified and we never get to see how he/she reacts. Well, not tonight.
Annette won! She's a very active guild member, and you can tell from that grin how delighted she is!
