I'm busy-busy getting ready for a little Halloween Party with my Applique' Group here tonight. I'll share some photos over the weekend.

Raffle Quilt Update: Shar, a friend from the guild and part of my Needlers' group, WON THE BASKET QUILT. Isn't that fabulous! Not only a quilter, but a guild member too.
