Memorial Day & K.I.S.S. Quilt Guild Auction

We prepare to honor our fallen heroes tomorrow,
never forgetting the ultimate sacrifice they made.
All three of my grandkidlets will be marching in
our local Memorial Day parade.
One a Girl Scout, one a Boy Scout &
one a high school band member.
Other posts about this day can be seen
here & here.

 The day after Memorial Day,
my K.I.S.S. Quilt Guild is
having an Auction!

I've been busy working on it for a long time!
All the donations were measured, 
photographed & cataloged, 
along with the quilt maker & 
pattern information,
 (if available).

This will be a LIVE auction & we are expecting some
 very LIVELY bidding to take place,
(with paper plates as paddles)!

 My granddaughter, Ms. C., visited recently &

Three prizes will be awarded that day:

One for "Best Use of Color & Cloth",
One for "Viewers' Choice" &
One for "Over-Achiever".

I wish I knew how to insert a voting poll so YOU could take part, online, in the judging.  I will have to put that on my bucket list of things to learn how to do.

There is an amazing amount of talent & diversity in this group & I'm proud to be a part of it.

Thanks for stopping by The Gazebo House today.
I appreciate your visits & comments.  

The sadness over my nephew & nieces deaths is softening somewhat & we've also had some fun times with a recent visit of another niece & her husband from Colorado.
Nothing like young people to get you laughing again!
