Retreat Time

Time for a Quilt Retreat

Retreat time
Spending time in the mountains
and sewing for hours upon hours upon hours.
 Our surroundings at Sunlight Retreat grounds.
Early morning sunshine
 Viewed from our porch
3 days of sewing, chatting, eating and more sewing
the Winnie the Pooh quilt top.....done

 Eagle Camo quilt top, ready for the long arm
 Close up of sections of the scenes
 another scene
 Black bear for Kirk, ready for the longarm
 And finally, the Ruffled Roses quilt top is done,
it only took 4 years, but it is done.  Next it will be longarm time, 
but after the others are done, as this one will take extra
time to do.
Very productive weekend to say the least.

More updates to come on each as they get quilted and 
all final details are completed.

Quilt Teasers-Eagle Camo & Pooh

Eagle Camo

Pooh

Teasers

Fussy cut blocks for the Pooh quilt.
 What is fussy cut?  Cutting holes in yardage of fabric to get
a special element.
 Fussy cutting leaves fabric with many holes in it.
 3 of the 4 colors that will be going with the fussy cut Pooh blocks.

And two elements that will be included in the Eagle Camo quilt.


 These are both Willow Bend designs

Robe

Robe 

for Tristan

One of my grand children made a special request
How could Nana say anything but yes.  

So he asked for a black fleece robe
he also has asked for his name on it but that will
wait until he visits so we can do that together
at the embroidery machine.

Finished it today.
It is very snugly.

 Some detail.
Have had 3 more requests for robes
Looks like a robe type of year
shaping up.
 It turned out really well.
Will have to share it again once we 
monogram it.   
With Tristan wearing it.
