Retreat Projects

I am managing to get a little sewing done.


Here is the last basket block from Wendy at Legends and Lace. 
And here are all 12 of mine.  I also worked on several applique blocks  that will be used in the same quilt as these but I'll have to show them to you next week. 
I finished block 7 of Benjamin Biggs.

Have a lovely weekend! I am having a much needed break with girlfriends. The Outdoor Sister's show is tomorrow and we leave Sunriver early. Our first stop is the antique quilts!

    Love your Baskets. DH poo pooed my thoughts of going to Sisters this year and DD #1 invited me to see a Friend portray a Nun in "The Sound of Music" at an outside amphitheater. Our Local Players are doing "Fiddler" tonight too. I guess Summer Musicals will suffice for the HOT weekend instead of a LONG Drive.

    Enjoy your retreat time..perfect getaway with friends after the past few months! Such a great group of baskets! I love the "bright" fabrics - makes them so cheery. They'll look fabulous with your applique blocks too. Another beautiful Benjamin Biggs block too! Have fun at Sisters! You always share such lovely quilts from the show!

Enjoy Sister's this morning and have fun looking, buying, looking, and buying. Take lots of pictures and can't wait to see what is next.
