Manteca Quilters Christmas Party 2008

One of the fun things we did last night was that we held a table centerpiece contest and a few of us signed up to use our creative ideas and come up with a Christmas decoration for our party.

This Santa was made by Sue.....good job! Sue's good at making bears but she can make Santa's too.
This gourd Santa was made by Sandra and she had a raffle to raise money for toys for tots. I didn't get lucky but President Janet did and won this Santa.
Sandra also made this cool snowman.....I think its made out of quilting batting.
Pegi made this centerpiece.......very nice so much to see.
Judy brought this beautiful centerpiece she even made the coasters for the glasses.
This centerpiece is a basket full of ornaments......beautiful.
Here's Janet's centerpiece....love the pine trees with the snow people.
Bob made this snowman out of pots you use for plants......and then painted it........it's so cute.
I took pictures of most of the night's centerpieces and last here is my table runner with my decorations on it. We gave away each centerpiece and people at the party that held the lucky ticket h each won one.....I was not lucky.....but Dottie got to take my centerpiece home.
Here part of the room......the tables are full of people.
We had a pot luck last night and here are people lined up to get their food.....look at all those crock pots full of soup and other stuff.
Here is part of the desert table.....yum.
More pictures tomorrow.......there was show and tell.
