A Treat at the Retreat

Hello Everyone,
 
Every night after dinner, we had a show and tell at the retreat.  This showing was a real treat!  There was so much talent in the room.  I have enough pictures for three more blog posts.  Quilts, quilts, and more quilts!
 
Ann started was working on Country Charmer last year at the retreat, and here it is all finished.  A beautiful finish!
 

This table runner was a retreat applique project a couple of years ago.  Nancy is making good progress.


Joanne is an exceptional quilter.  She hand quilted this beauty!





Mary made another Lil' Orphan Scrappy for us to see. So pretty.


Patty's Chicken Quilt is done! 



No matter how big or small the project, each and everyone gets a round of applause.  Peggy said she doesn't do little.


Jocelyn also doesn't do little......until she met me!




Sue loves Fall and Halloween, and she shared the love with us.






Patty finished my Buttonwood pattern.




No retreat is complete without a visit from Mazey.


Mazey loves her visits as much as the retreaters.


I've just kicked back the last few days and enjoyed my time with Mr. Joe and Mazey.  We attended a Livermore High School football game to watch our granddaughter cheer the team to victory.  What an All-American Girl!  Kinsey is so sweet, and kind.  We love her beyond measure.


Today Mr. Joe and I are attacking the garage.  I need to unveil my long-arm and get it humming away on Country Romance.  It is all marked and ready to be quilted.  The pattern is almost all written too.  There just aren't enough hours in the day.
 

More pictures tomorrow from the retreat.

Soon,
Lynn
