And last but not least - it won first prize!  I received this beautiful goody box sponsored by our local Pfaff dealer containing a Rotary Cutter blade (always welcome), a measuring tape, pin cushion, 4 fat quarters (what will be stitched with this fabric?) and various metal charms which will most definitely come in handy.
