Going Once, Going Twice.... SOLD!

Saturday was the auction at my church where I entered this quilt. I can't remember if I ever posted a picture of the finished product, so here it is:


Well, actually, this isn't the finished product. Apparently, I never took a picture of it when it was finished. What's wrong with me??!! This picture is missing the tiger stripe binding, backing, and top stitching. Thanks to Allyson, I have some pictures at the Auction from her phone. Here it is being auctioned off:


It went for $800! I am very happy that I was able to make something that would bring that much money in for the school. I think I might make another quilt next year... probably not LSU, though. lol

As for me, I won a bunch of lovely items at the auction. Jeffrey won me this Diamond and Amethyst bracelet (Again, this picture was taken on Allyson's phone, so it doesnt do the bracelet justice) :
I was the envy of many women that night. :)
We also won a wine tasting for a group of friends that a couple at the church, Duane and Elizabeth, is going to host. I can't wait for that! They are really sweet and lots of fun.
Those were our 2 big items, but we won a bunch of other stuff in the silent auction, including a facial, and 2 gift cards to my salon and spa... I can't wait to use those!!
Overall it was a great night and we had a lot of fun and were able to get some great things. I can't wait to hear how much money the school was able to make that night.

What is wrong with you??? LOL. I can't believe that you didn't take a picture of the final quilt... but I guess taking care of Avery is sort of pushing other things to the wayside.

I am so glad that you get to go to the spa! You deserve to be pampered. I'm proud of the quilt, its crazy that you started it in July.
