If you're reading this on Sunday - I'm on a plane to California to visit my kids. While I'm gone, I've set up posts for the next 2 weeks so you can see all the beautiful quilt tops that were completed on this year's retreat. Eleven quilters and 26 quilt tops! Enjoy the show!!

"Gypsy Girl"

"Short Story" from the Schnibbles book (done by me)

"All Wrapped Up" using Freebird by Momo (also done by me!)

Cute Snowmen!

"Sweet Pea", pattern by Heather Mulder Peterson.

Winner! and More!

Thank you to all who left a comment! It seems like everyone loves precuts for the variety of fabrics and ...well, the fact that they're "pre-cut". I wish I could send everybody a book! The winner, chosen at random is Hillbilly Handiworks! Send me your address and I'll get the book out to you right away!

The night before retreat, I finished the binding on this wall hanging.

When I got home, this was at my door step!

There's always a little fabric shopping to and from retreat. I picked up a little Riley Blake Christmas.

Some teals and browns.

Some fun "Halloweeny"fabric.

Over 20 quilt tops were completed by our group on retreat this time. Stay tuned - there's a virtual quilt show coming!!

Off Again!

My bags are packed and I'm off to a quilting retreat again this week! Though it will be hot outside, we'll be buzzing away on our machines in the cool AC. Can't wait!

I've got 3 major projects. Two from the new Schnibbles book. A little Short Story using "Fandango". Just happens to fulfill my Year of Schnibbles for August, too! Another quilt from the book using Kate Spain's "12 Days of Christmas".

And this fun quilt - All Wrapped Up, using "Freebird".

I'll be back Friday with a winner and lots of pictures!

My "Slushie" and a Give away!

Unknown No comments

I've hinted about this quilt and give-away recently. Well, it's finally finished - slowed down by a couple of yards of missing thread!

The fabric line is "Hunky Dory". The pattern "Slushie" from A Baker's Dozen, written and published by Martingale and Company.

I just love how the design used a wide border around each of the alternate blocks. With this awesome floral to work with, the blocks look like matted and framed pieces of art.

I did lots of custom quilting!

A Baker's Dozen is filled with great projects using popular pre-cuts. You may think there are 13 projects, but no, these nice bakers give you 14! All beautiful! And the generous people at Martingale donated a book for me to give away. Just leave a comment - maybe you can let me know why you like to use pre-cuts. I'll draw a winner next Friday Aug. 13th. It may be your lucky day!
