Sewing Quilts Weekend !
 
4 Attachment(s)
I have just arrived home after a 4 day long weekend at our fishing cabin in the highlands. The autumn weather was superb, sunny days with very cool early mornings and evenings.

What I like most about these weekends is the amount of sewing I can get done while hubby is out fishing or pottering about doing odd jobs.

I had already done the blocks for the first two quilt tops but hadn't been able to get them pieced together. Well they are now at this stage but the first quilt I have decided to add a thin border and then a whole row of blocks around the outside before it is quilted. The second quilt is ready to be quilted as this one won't have a border, just binding.

I also managed to get the blocks started for my next scrap quilt. The rest of the blocks for this one will be done when we are back at the cabin in early June.

Oh and that's me feeding a kangaroo at a local zoo which we visited with a friend and her little children over the weekend.

Anxious to see them finished. Great looking quilts!! Roo is cute but I wouldn't want to cross him.

Great vacation! I can see that you really planned ahead before you left on the trip. You planned to get things done and you were very successful. Beautiful scrappy quilts. Sounds like fun trip and great relaxed fellowship.

Wow, you really got a lot done. My girlfriend & I are going up to our cottage in a couple weeks for a mini quilt retreat weekend. Hope we are as productive!
