One of our bee members, Sue, lives on 20 acres with a beautiful guest house. She invited our bee to have a retreat there. She cleared and converted one room into our sewing area.

She set up her Handi Quilter and finished four quilt tops!
This was the first sewing retreat for Julie G! She was very productive, finishing a Halloween wall hanging. She also finished many blocks for another quilt.
Ute creates and sells beautiful hand-dyed fabrics and quilt patterns. She was piecing quilt tops, which are samples of her newest, stylish patterns!
