Retreat

This past week I have been enjoying myself at Craft Camp in Pillager, Minnesota. I had a great time! Enjoyed the people, food, and the sewing time! I brought my 2 1/2" strips, thinking that I would try and get rid of as much as I could. I also brought about 20 patterns for 2 1/2" strips. Here's a pic of the first quilt top....


The second quilt top....

I also did a test block for a charm square pattern that I intend on  using for  a lap quilt ....

 A butterfly block!
I had three blocks leftover from the first quilt top. I intend to use them as Charity quilts for stillborns. I just need to put extra borders on to make them a little larger...


I have two of these !

I also finished the first month of my Mystery Quilt from my Third Saturday group today...



Chatter later, Martha.

  I have been doing some more sewing of flying geese, the past couple of days.  I have made some progress as I have about twenty sashings total sewn now.  Here are pics of what I have finished so far. I also got back another lap quilt from the quilter and I have sewn down the binding on the front side. In the evenings I am enjoying hand sewing the back side.   I also purchased some Applipops  , which were a bit on the expensive side($35) and decided to try them for all the circles in this quilt. They are not worth the price in my opinion.  To each his own. I prefer my mylar circle washers, There are many more sizes and easier to use.
