REALLY A RETREAT!

A Quilting Retreat At Compass Centre in Mt. Calm, Texas has now come to an end. We had such a good time and from the quilts below, you can see what is accomplished. These are just a few of the gorgeous creations by these talented ladies. I laughed more this weekend than I have in a long time. The friendships made are priceless. I made friends and renewed friendships (even smoked a piece-cigar=====don't ask). Kathy E was the hostess and did a fantastic job co-ordinating every detail. A fat quarter swap and block lotto were two activities that were enjoyed by all. We shared tips and techniques. The food was fantastic and shopping trips were an everyday thing also. Enjoy the quilts--more later.

Quilt by Jerri--I believe she said it was a Block of the Month.

A Halloween quilt made from a swap. (We turned out the lights to see the tiny eyes on the backing glow in the dark).

Fall quilt by Aunt Kaye (I think) If I am mistaken on the maker of these quilts please leave a comment.
