Spring Quilt Retreat Part 2


Several of our members have embroidery capable machines and they undertook to make these
very cute and clever dish towels for the retreaters!

Here is Leatha working on a Bonnie Hunter style quilt from recycled plaid shorts.



A sample of Leatha's miniature blocks! Yep, that's a quarter beside them! We all hand off our tiny triangle discards to this quilter!

Elma and her quilt, it needs a final border........

me and my flimsie...........

Lori's quilt that is to go in an antique wooden frame.

An Easter table runner from Lynn, who also made a baby quilt......

a quilt made from recylced jeans from Christie, this is a big quilt........

the wonderful "Professional Tote" by Kaye, a true labor of love for her sister, it has lots of handy pockets and zippers.......


Norma's lovely completed top..........

and good progress by Jean on her Bonnie Hunter design.

Here's Leatha again with co-conspirator Ruthe-they called themselves the "underachievers" for completing just one block apiece-but they did much more that you don't see, and Ruthe is the chief Barrista who makes wonderful lattes!

Here is Nancy and her BOM's........

and sweet Claudia with her quilt top. More about Claudia in a future post!
