Our Customer Appreciation Auction went really well this year! We had an impressive turn-out and everyone had a fun time bidding on items they wanted. The process was simple: starting August 1st, for every $10 a customer spent in the store, he or she received $100 in our Auction Bucks. On September 19th everyone gathered together at Suzanne's Quilt Shop and used those Auction Bucks to bid on the items they just had to have!
There were plenty of quilts to bid on, from crib size quilt tops to queen size finished quilts and everything in between. There were countless goody bags filled with threads, batting, books, patterns, notions, and even soothing hand lotions. There was even a prize handmade doll, and everyone oooo'd and aaaaaah'd over her. Just take a look at all of our excited patrons: "Hey, everybody! Hold up your Auction Bucks for the camera!" And look at all the goody bags in front of them, ready to go home and be made into something beautiful.
Our very own Shirley played Auctioneer for the event, and Suzanne was surprised and amused at Shirley's exhuberant dedication to the job.
By the end of the event, we made sure to get a photo of the happy auction winners with their fresh goodies.
