My favorite new finger food is a layered dip that I use hummus, and then layer in like a Greek salad...goes like gangbusters. As far as item I love a fat quarter bundles! Always I great idea, maybe purse patterns!

A basket with quilt tools from outside the quilt store (painter's tape, hair (binding) clips, bamboo skewers, etc.

while I don't mean to offend anyone on here but it is the only description i have ever heard of this. A chinese raffle or auction is where you put your tickets in a little bag or basket in front of the item you want to win. Our guild does it a little differently in that you buy your tickets but instead of drawing a name out of the individual baskets they put them all in one and then start going down the gifts that were brought in for it. so you never know what you will get (if anything) or you may end up getting what you brought. it is a little bit fairer i guess in that everyone gets a chance at everything.
