I went to one and I took a couple of projects with me to work on, plus I took a book that I was reading and it was one of those that you can't put down. I finished reading it and got my sewing done also. I won a couple of door prizes, one for being their for the first time and the other one was for having an ugly quilt (it was so bad that my husband even said it was ugly). It's going to be my pratice quilt for putting on my new frame, when ever I get brave enough.
