2014 Beach Retreat
We had the best time at the retreat! We had snow - FINALLY!! - at the beach. I ran around the deck catching snow in my mouth to see if it tasted salty. It did a little bit! It was a wonderful gathering of friends and, as usual, we all helped each other get out of jams. We shared sewing techniques and experiences. That makes us all better seamstress. I can't wait to do it again in 2015! However, in 2015, I will make sure I don't delete some of the pictures. I don't have pictures here that were on the camera. It's a new camera and I didn't get everything transferred to my computer and deleted many pictures. Enjoy the pictures I did manage to keep!

Dear Bonnie and Jane - Feb 8th
Our group for Bonnie Hunter and Dear Jane projects is kicking off well! Not everyone is working on Bonnie or Jane quilts but that's okay! We're just about fun and fellowship! I really have to start to remember to get pictures of my own projects!

Red and White Challenge
I am participating in Sew Cal Gal’s “A Year of Red and White Quilts” Challenge.
I know some of you have red and white quilts to share! Go to SewCalGal and READ THE INSTRUCTIONS! I didn't and I should have! Mary - I know you're making a red and white quilt and now I'll have to start another one!!
This quilt is from Bonnie Hunter's Blue Ridge Beauty - completed in 2012. This quilt is now living in Texas and was made from fabric from an exchange. This is a M-O-N-S-T-E-R quilt. It is 111 x 113. I would encourage you to always follow Bonnie's suggestion of making quilts using the Leaders and Enders method - which is also the name of the book this pattern is in. It's an easy pattern - good for even beginners. There are a lot of pieces!
This is from the Pinwheel Party by Ellen Pahl. The pattern is called Three of Hearts. This quilt is finished (completed in 2013) - I just don't seem to have a picture of it finished! This is one of the sweetest quilts and the pattern went together well. You'll love every step of putting this together!
Come play along!
