I leave for my quilt retreat in 10 days - 5 days of quilting and sleeping and eating!!

Because I am getting excited I wanted to show you pictures of our "hanging of the quilts" from a few years ago - these are service project quilts the retreaters made and turned in at the retreat!

Isn't it beautiful!?

Holy Hannah! I cannot make up my mind which one I like the best. You had better get the Marines to guard them. They are too gorgeous to leave alone.

Those quilts are so beautiful.

It's so much more than beautiful--
It's a rainbow from hearts filled with love.

It's loving stitches to bring warmth and a smile to someone in need.

It's so many hugs-to-go.

You gals are awesome. :D

the Fall retreat is probably about 70+ and the spring retreat is less at about 50-60! I've only been to the spring retreats so this will be a treat to be up in the northwoods in the fall - I have such a great DH to let me do this when we have a 6 year old and an 8 year old!!

What fun! You guys made some beauties! I know you'll have a good time.

quilterpat 10-07-2008 07:37 PM

Beautiful quilts and a lovely way to show them off. Great job to all.
I leave on thurs the 16th for quilt camp up in Door County, WI can't wait, 4 days of quilting, quilting, quilting or whatever you like to do with your time. We pre shop on the way up there. I have been cutting out stuff to work on, so while there I can just sew. It is really a great time for all of us. We make some really nice friends while there.
Have a great time at your retreat. :)

mamatobugboo 10-10-2008 05:48 AM

have a great time at yours too!! Your plan is exactly my plan, we shop all the way up and all the way back - I am also in the process of cutting out my stuff so I don't "waste" time up there cutting instead of sewing! I leave on Wednesday! Wow, Door County this time of year - gorgeous! We go up to northern MN, about 20 minutes south of Walker so it will be beautiful up there too! :D

Mplsgirl 10-10-2008 06:20 AM
