Neighbourhood Show and Share
We just had another Neighbourhood Show and Share in my area. The 3 local guilds/club hosted neighbouring guilds and quilters for a lunch then a show of quilts. We charged $5 for non-members of our groups and our members made sandwiched and desserts for the visitors. We met in the morning to make up veggie, fruit and cheese trays and the visitors started arriving at 11. Lunch at 12 and show starting at 1. Our members collected almost 200 handmade and donated prizes for draws and we made up 2 final gift baskets. This event is hosted by a different town every year and this year we had 225 visitors. We also have a block lottery. This year we sent out a 'mason jar' 8" block and got enough to give away 8 kits of 20 blocks and 1 of 16. Everyone thought it was a great day.
