Mini Retreat 2017



Our guild decided to have a mini retreat this weekend
Catch All Caddy pattern front cover 

We rooked Vernelle into teaching how to make the Catch All caddy by Annie

She will be MIA next time. 

It was like herding a bunch of farm cats...

we were a mess!!

Some had all the components ready, while others had not started.

But...

with some patience and lots of help, we all got a caddy finished!!

This was mine...


Jane's in some japanase blossom  


 Terry's in some fabulous batiks


Narrie's cute lobsters


 Charlene's 'easter' colors 


Colleen made great use of her selvage edges


Love it!! 


Chris's in Garden themed fabric 

 We also had a surprise visit from Marianna Wick and her first quilt! 

Lightening Two Color Bargello


 The same one I was working on! 
(only I missed a step and got an M)

 It was a productive and fun weekend!! 


 Deb finished a project from her moms stash, Dresden plate 


Jane got a good start on a stack and wack....love that blue!


There was some great show and tell.

Terry has a collection of collage quilts using up her Kaffe Fassett fabrics
