Eye Candy: Design Walls and More from Retreat

I had a wonderful time at retreat last week with seven friends old and new. We all accomplished so much! Here in no particular order, some photos:

Debbie's Snowball quilt
The blocks were already made and she was determined to finish the top!


Paula's Fabric Weaving, successfully completed 
under Eleanor's tutelage


Judy's Burp Cloths for Great-grandbabies
After cranking out numerous king-sized wedding quilts for her grandchildren,
she was glad for smaller projects. 


Edna's Disappearing Nine Patch with a Slant veteran's quilt.
She's been working on blocks at social sewing
and she has enjoyed this pattern.


Eleanor's complicated and challenging project 
She nailed it!


Linda's charity quilt featuring fabrics donated by Julie 
(Thanks, Julie!)


Paula's finish, binding and all


Jeri's veteran's quilt from a panel


Eleanor's top featuring her treasured floral print fabric


Jeri's 3 yard charity quilt, embellished with daisies
because she thought it was boring and needed something


Edna's quilt for a soon-to-be Air Force Academy graduate.
Blocks from patterns, but layout is her own design.


Paula's small improv project, from a class on a recent quilt cruise


Debbie's first improv project, with coaching from Paula and Linda


My second baby quilt in opal-inspired colors, because I had leftover strips from the first.
Blocks were already made, just needed sashing and rows assembled. 


My extra project in case I ran out of projects, glad I brought it. 
Blocks were already made; here the vertical sashing has been added. 


My finished Diabolical Jane top

A great time was had by all and we're already looking forward to the next trip in July!
