My quild's last meeting of the year is our Harvest Supper in early November. Everyone brings food or donates money for a ham or turkey and there is always plenty of desserts. Tables are decorated and everyone gets a FQ, one year the FQ was an orange fabric wrapped around a roll of toilet tissue to look like a pumpkin, had a twig in the center and a real leaf. Another year the FQ was our 'napkin' in a corn cob fabric which we were to make a small challenge quilt with for the next Harvest Supper. We also display the Dolly quilts we made and prizes are awarded. 60 or more of the dolly quilts are given to a local senior center group to be added to their Christmas gifts for the kids in their town's Head Start program They wrap the little quilts around dolls for girls and teddy bears for boys. Havest Supper is also last call for charity quilts which we give to local churches and social services groups for Christmas gifts. Past few years we've added fun pillowcases. May in Jersey
