Oh, Christmas Tree!

Even though it has been four years since I stitched with the Tea and Stitch ladies, they are still contributing a tree to the silent auction. (Lest I make you think I am dancing backwards in high heels, last year I had a great deal of help on the auction from my compadre Nicole. Then this year, she took it over. The problem with the auction is it will burn you out, so we should probably rotate in a new person so they can do most of the work with an assist from me and Nicole.)

They have outdone themselves this year. I have a few snaps of their ornaments.

First the ladies had one member teach them how to make these yarn hats--they are made with yarn and a piece of toilet paper tube! And I can tell you they are cuuuuuute.

Close up. I don't know who made this one, but they were dedicated to getting the pompom right!

When I was sorting through the bag of ornaments, there looked to be a crumpled up piece of tissue at the bottom. And wrapped inside it I found this angel tree topper. I can't belive someone knit and donated this. It's amazing. 

I want this tree! But I think it is going to go for much more than it has in the past. Partly because these are great ornaments, and partly because there are a lot more people coming. 

I'll take a photo when it's all set up and let you know how much $$ it raises.
