Quilting Retreat -- Photo Heavy!

I attended a quilting retreat last weekend.  It was the 14th year that we have all got together in January for a weekend of sewing and fun.  The photo to the left is a quilt in progress made by Ali.  Ali is prolific at applique!  Below, I've shown a few close-ups of her work.

The ladies are absolutely beautiful.  Such care and detail given in the stitching.










We swapped red/white 4-patches.  This is just one of the projects being made with the swap blocks.  Don't you just love the embroidery blocks in black?

Berta made this photo quilt for her grandson, a hockey player!  Great job!


Check out Patricia's double bow-tie quilt!

Another quilt by Patricia -- a bra quilt!  She is in the process of handquilting the quilt.
I love the colorful Moose quilt made by Tammy!


Stay Tuned!  More pics to come in a future post!
