I went to another quilt retreat. My cousin and a friend were in charge, so when they still had room, I signed up last minute. It was in northern Minnesota at a conservation center. This was the beautiful room in which we sewed:
I know it looks lonely here, but it was full of action for several days. This is at the end of the retreat when everyone but three of us had left; we were cramming in our last minute cutting and sewing.
It was very cold during our whole time there (at one point as low as -25 deg. F), so we spent very little time outside. My table was at this window, right by the bird feeder, so I had fun watching the birds.
You have probably seen this quilt before. It is very big (ten feet long!), so I had put off attaching the binding. I finally got that done, then I slept under the quilt the rest of the nights. It's a toasty warm quilt.
Jill worked on this; I love the pattern and wrote down the name... now if I can only remember where I wrote it down.
Kathy worked on this:
My sister made this quilt; I added some borders.
Several of us made drawstring gift bags. I'm in the front middle.
I enjoyed this retreat and the snow-covered, colder-than-heck north woods. I did not go crazy taking photos this time.
