I got to spend just a day with the
Club Quilt girls at their annual retreat on the weekend. Always a lot of laughs & a flurry of activity. Here is a quick roundup of the weekend gathering of quilting friends:
As we are coming into winter in Australia, there was lots of cuddly flannel happening ...
... some amazing piecing ...
... some clever stippling ...
... beautiful fabrics beneath machines ...
... other happy fabric bundles just laying about, waiting for transformation ...
... some raw-edge grooviness ...
... some stunning redwork embroidery...
... a little bit of bagmaking (using
this pattern) ...
...and all sorts of other pretty patching ...
And this is just a little of what I saw in my 24 hours at the retreat. You can only imagine what they all got up to on the other two days! There will be lots more reports of this weekend
here,
here and
here soon, I'm, sure.
