My first post vanished…now that’s creepy..so I’m trying again!!!
Camp report…..fun, fun and more fun. Three wonderful days of sewing and laughing with friends. So many great projects made…. sadly I didn’t take many pictures. But here’s a few to share.
Waking up each morning to hot air balloons floating around..pretty!!! The grounds were amazing..sorry no photos!!!
The girls that organized the retreat had a mystery quilt for us to do if we wanted. Easy, peasy made with a layer cake.
One out of Batiks….
a cheery one……..
and this yummy one!!!A really cute pumpkin
runner
and a sweet Xmas project!
A finish from last year…love that border treatment on the sides and this sweet
heart quilt!!!! I decided I needed to get busy on the Grinch Xmas quilt for the boys
……a bit ofcheating though. My friend Carol pieced all the character blocks for me…I am so lucky. Then I worked on the bits and pieces for my Simple Things
quilt. A very productive quilt camp! I did get a picture of my friend Joan’s quilt
…….love the chain that run thru this quilt!
In the midst of sewing and laughing all of a sudden some knee slapping country music came on and look who appeared
dancing his little heart out!! We had no idea who it was . I can tell you this cowboy had some moves. Hysterically funny! Then came the reveal..it was our quilting buddy Gloria
. She did an amazing job of entertaining us! Then the wheels started turning. There was another quilt group sewing across the hall from a San Diego quilt shop. We thought it would be fun to surprise them with the cowboy. The next night a couple of the girls put the invite out to meet in the courtyard and here’s what they were treated to
. I have a really cute video of the performance but I can’t figure out how to put it on my blog! We had the perfect retreat with lots of fun games and giveaways …and lots of great memories with friends.Home Sunday to celebrate Big Dots 3rd birthday
…a bounce house full of boys bouncing around. That’s Little Dot sitting down.
The perfect day spent with family and friends. So hard to believe our little man is 3 and totally obsessed with Thomas The Train. By the way have you seen the Thomas The Train fabric?? I will be making someone a quilt out of that!
Happy week bloggy friends!!!!
