I returned from my quilt retreat in the northwoods of MN on Sunday and wanted to post a few pictures of the retreat as well as the projects I completed/almost completed while I was there!

flag wallhanging I made on Friday - the rotary cutter is there for size comparison - I did not use "cheater" triangles, these are finished 1" square using 1/2 sq. triangles - PUTZY but fun!

last one, promise!

quilt for a silent auction benefiting a maternity home where I volunteer - this is the Brown Bear fabric and I am including the Brown Bear book plus a book tote with the same fabrics! I did this on Wednesday evening and Thursday morning!

I made him too - but not this weekend! He lost a tooth this morning and I think he is just the cutest thing!

Gee, you all must have not slept the whole time you were on your retreat! Such great quilts!!

And your little boy is just precious (don't tell him I used that word -- my grandson hates it)! :-) :-)
