Well, I'm back from the retreat. This one was SUCH A GREAT time. We laughed and ate, and laughed and ate some more. I only wish we could see this group of people more often than once a year.
And, I was very, very productive. Day one:
 |
| First to be put together...the orphan block baby top |
 |
| My Creative Grids pineapple blocks baby top |
 |
| The QOV from just a jelly roll and a few yards of fabric |
And I was thinking to myself I was way (way) ahead of schedule in my head.
Day two:
 |
| Produce Section is a top |
Day three:
 |
| Notice the 3-D napkin hanging |
And day four:
 |
| So cute! |
All of these but the table runner need borders and/or setting pieces put into them but they are constructed correctly and are ready for me to make them whole. Look at all these new quilting projects I have just created for myself. I had one of the retreat members give me a quilt to take home to work for her, so it wasn't just a 'vacation' for me but also a working situation.
Here's day five (because technically, the retreat was still happening):
 |
| Taking the morning slow |
I finished crocheting my slippers and did nothing else but put everything away and sort out the many lovely gift bags we received.
 |
| So warm and comfy! |
Today I'll be working on Bernadettes Tilda Sampler on DW while watching the snow falling slowly from the sky. Not expecting any customers with the snow/freezing fog we had last night and the continued snow we're getting today.
