Great Quilting...Great Friends

For quilters, there is nothing better than getting to spend all day at your sewing machine! Well, that's what I got to do this weekend. Angie and "Weezie" at All Washed Up have been hosting these great sewing days for years now. It's so fun to get together with old and new friends, share, eat, laugh and have a good time doing what you enjoy the most.

I took Erin and Joel's wedding quilt top, (not quilted yet!) to share and show everyone. It was a great hit and everyone wants me to make a pattern. It's a rather large quilt, so the pattern would be a smaller version of it.
















One of the things I worked on was a table runner that Angie designed for the Moda Bake Shop.
It's GREAT!!! It only takes one Charm Square pack (with 40 fabrics), and 1/8 yard for inner border.
It went together very quickly and I'm excited to make more of them!
You can go to the Moda Bake Shop and get the free directions.








Alayne shared the quilt she made at a retreat that Angie and Louise hosted.











Pam also showed her beautiful version of the same quilt.

It's always amazing how different and fun they all turn out.

As with all good things, they have to come to an end and it was back to the real world and work today.

"E" booked some tickets for us to visit Australia and New Zealand! I'm really excited and can't wait until this fall when we get to go.
