Quilting Retreat

This weekend, commencing tomorrow afternoon, a few like-minded girls are heading up country for a two day quilting retreat.
So tonight it is packing my bag, and everything I might need "quilting wise" into the car so I can make a quick getaway as soon as I get home from work!
Two days of cutting, talking, sewing, laughing, pressing, talking, more sewing, more talking and laughing,. along with dinner at the local pub on Saturday night. Sounds like heaven to me!

I'm Excited

Three weeks ago I met Karen of Quilts on Bastings,  when I delivered two of my quilts to her to be quilted.
Well tomorrow I get to pick them up, I am excited to see what they look like.

Having seen examples of Karen's work on her blog http://quiltsonbastings.blogspot.com/I am certain they will look fantastic. Log on and have a look at the beautiful work she does.

Two down many more to go.

I will upload photos once the bindings are stitched on and they are really, really finished - can't wait!!
