A Gift from Bev
The Dirty Dozen Fiber Artists, to whom I belong, have recently added a new policy: anyone having a birthday in a given month is expected to bring gifts to everyone else. Well, that IS fun! The gift can be anything from a piece of gum, to fabric, to whatever you can think of. I’m really glad I got to go first, because some of the recent gifts have been extraordinary. Like this one from Bev O’Connell.
She brought each of us a big Crown Royal bag full of goodies. Of course, we were drooling over the bags before we even saw the contents.
