A quilt retreat is the perfect time to sew your little heart out, at all hours. That's what I did this past weekend. I took Friday off and spent two and a half days sewing, along with a couple dozen other ladies from my guild. We always have a great time. (This was our 5th year of retreating.) When I wasn't sewing, I'd fall back on the bed and read a good book... or take a nice nap.
I got a lot done! It feels great. I would have liked to finish more, but after all, my time was finite.
Now I wish I had another day or two for catching up on home stuff. But.. duty calls. Tomorrow morning it's back to work.
Some of these I made from scratch... others were in progress, and I finished them. I got started on some other stuff, too, so luckily, I won't run out of things to do.
It looks like you got a ton done and it sounds like you had fun! I love long weekends of crafting! Can't wait to see you Tuesday!
ReplyDeleteI love the brown and gold one...my mom gave us one like that when we got married...but it got wrecked.. I should have kept it..yikes... I also love the last one with the small squares! Great work!
ReplyDeleteWow - what a lot done!
ReplyDeleteI love the red white and blue one and, of course, the red and white. What's happening to this one?
Wow, you were so productive! I love all of your quilts. my mother did one very similar to the red and white one. I love the red white and blue and the bargello. I am sure it was great to get away and not worry about anything but sewing.
ReplyDeleteYay! I see my red & white block! A quilting retreat sounds like fun right about now.
