Check out your stash and find some unfinished item you think others would like to buy at the auction and then FINISH IT! Also, put on your creative thinking caps and come up with some unusual items to appeal to a diverse audience.

SPOUSES AND FAMILY ARE INCLUDED IN THIS PARTY! REMEMBER TO MENTION THE AUCTION TO YOUR FRIENDS AND BRING THEM ALONG, TOO.

There will be refreshments as we know this group enjoys the fellowship of eating and drinking. And we know that our members know how to make tasty temptations. So, get to work stitching, growing, and cooking for a fabulous auction.

Our auctioneer, Peter Gardner, will be doing a repeat performance (he was very entertaining at our last auction). WE ARE GOING TO HAVE A TERRIFIC TIME!
