Tonight I joined a Guild in my home town. It is called the Alamo Heritage Quilt Guild. Last month I visted it and went to their auction and fabric boutique. I bought a whole bunch of fabrics for a very low price.

This time I went a joined and signe up for their Retreat in May. I need to start paying now so it is payed off by the time it comes. I also bought a $1 chance fortheir door prize and won a basket and a pattern. :D We also did a FatQ exchange. I took 2 brown Fat Q's and got to pick 2 from the ones brought by other members Overall I had a great time :!: :!: :!:

The pattern is called Quilt Diva by Amy Bradley

Nice gifts and your guild sounds like fun! Went to one of my guild meetings last night and we planned our Christmas lunch and instead of exchanging gifts we are all bringing womens hygiene items to give to the Womens resourses group.
