At the end of lunch, we all went into the Lounge and opened the big pressie that was sitting on the chair......... yes, we made them wait until AFTER lunch to open the gift!! And here is my MIL...... This pic was taken straight after it was opened:
Here is my FIL checking out the quilt that Roseanne and Myself made for them to mark their special occasion:

Now, onto my Giveaway!! Remember this..... After I got home today, I was really in a stitching mood and decided to finish it off. And, it only took about an hour!! Can you believe it lol!! I patched up the hole and added a larger twill tape and it is as good as new!! So, to celebrate my 200th post this will be my Giveaway (minus the scissors - their mine!!)

Congratulations ladies on such a special quilt. I don't know how you managed to keep it a secret for so long then give it after your meal. I would have been busting at the seams. Tell me what is that quilt that the sewing caddy is on? Can we have a look at it one day. Happy days.
