January Meeting

Stacy and Deb had a neat meeting arranged for the group.   Stacy brought a friend (Oh no!  I need her name) who churns out stitched pieces like no bodies business.   The pieces were fabulous.

Here's what we did.    Stacy had all the pieces numbered.   She held them up and showed them table by table around the room.   It was our task to ~name~ the designer.   25 pieces and I think the winner of the prize for most correct had 14 right.  Here are some of them.  Aren't they beautiful!
