More Fun with Susan's Retreat Friends!


All too often, retreats come to a close all too quickly.

Before I know it folks are picking up projects, having reached a good stopping point on the last full day, and the gathering, organizing and the packing up of vehicles begins.

It's bittersweet!

Never the less we filled our weekend to the brim with as much quilty fun as any group could muster.

Where Quilters Gather!


This was yesterday's brunch bunch!

As I've said before, NO ONE goes hungry at retreat - ever!

The kitchen has been producing many yummy smells over the past few days and everything has been deliciously served with love.

And that includes the special treats too!

Retreating in the Rain!


This was the scene yesterday as I arrived at Quiltville Inn to check on Susan's Retreat group and see how they fared for their first night!

It's a good sign when folks are already sewing - in jammies - after 9am!

Meanwhile - it POURED outside.  It had poured all night long.  It rained off and on throughout yesterday and rained through the night last night.

In 24 hours we've received more than 2'' of rain.  Crazy.

When We Need A Little Sunshine -


This is Karen's sweet mama Mary Anne!

She celebrated her 85th birthday yesterday, receiving a beautiful Tulip Time quilt from Karen in honor of her big day.

How many 85 year olds do you know who can get down on the floor like this - and still get back up?

You have to love the socks too - another gift that Karen knitted herself.

Happy Birthday, indeed!
