I have mailed my ornaments but do not want to post a picture so it is a surprise to the recipient.

OOOPS, I was not aware there would be an opening day.

It wasn't discussed much this year... not your fault.

I am going to an annual Christmas Quilt Retreat tomorrow. We usually take a piece to add to the bunting that decorates our quilting hall. However the space for bunting is now full so this year we are to take a Christmas Ornament to decorate a Christmas tree. These are retained by the group and displayed each year. Our name and year goes on the back. Also we have to take a Christmas placemat each year. These are shuffled and placed on the table for each meal, that way you get to sit near someone new each meal. A great idea, you just find you placemat and that is your place.
I like to make a new one each year, as it uses up fabric and designs. Here are the pictures of what I made.

Beautiful placemat and ornament. Sounds like a fun event.

Look at the fist post by ankoa. She says the date there. But, no matter. We have all done that before. Right girls?

I couldn't find the opening date either, until Anoka mentioned it in her last post.

BettyJ, beautiful placemat and ornament! What a great tradition... that placemat switcheroo!

I received my ornament swap package in todays mail. Thank you so much to my swap partner, no QB name on the package.
