Retreat

I took a couple days to sew with friends.  Since this is the only time I piece, I had a couple projects to work on.  This one was so quick and easy.  It started out like this...

and turned into this table runner.

I purchased this cute safari panel years ago and put some borders around it.  

  

And worked on three block-of-the-month's that I had not completed.  I'm all caught up now.

Last October 2011, at another retreat, I pieced the blocks together from a basket block exchange that I participated in.  I just had to put the final batik borders on it.  I like how it looks now.

Here's what others were working on.... a tote bag and blocks for a bed-size quilt

The Queen of wool, Ute!

This is a little basket embellished with wool.  So cute!

This log cabin block is only 8" square.  Jodie did some quilting.

 

Sue sewed this quilt with vintage fabrics and finished it with hand-quilting.
