Retreat Results

"Gems" Quilt made with Dye Candy Fabrics

I finished my Gems and the Xanadu quilt tops at retreat and sent them off with my friend Renee so she can finish the quilting for me.  I am getting ready to sell kits for these patterns. Both quilts will be featured in my booth at quilt shows this year.  I can't wait to get them back.  The Gems pattern looks so scrumptious in the Earthtone hand dyed fabrics.

"Xanadu" quilt top made with Dye Candy Fabrics

Talk about goddess of the last minute.  I dyed all of the fabrics for the Xanadu quilt the night before I left for the retreat.  Thanks goodness for Large Marge.  She ironed all 28 yards of fabric in about an hour.  I was able to get on the road just after dinner Wednesday night.

Mom and I had a wonderful time surrounded by many good friends. There is nothing more uplifting than a room full of creative women!

I joined Marcia's Making Minutes for Me Group again this winter. See more of the quilts from this group by following this link.
