Last weekend I went on a quilting retreat to Port Fairy. It was just heavenly, to stay in a 'beautiful' house directly on the beach (so much nicer in Winter I think!!) with great company, great food and all the time in the world!I didn't achieve a lot but don't think that matters ( do I sound convincing??), I cut the fabric for a Schnibbles quilt but didn't get that any further, took a lot of handstitching which I looked at once, started an 'Elm Creek quilts' book which I am loving, had a nanna nap, went for a few walks, watched a few dvds and generally enjoyed seeing what everyone else was up to and coming home inspired!!
Of course no quilt weekend is complete without chocolate!!
The 'achiever' of the weekend was Tracey
, would you believe she actually completed 5 quilt tops over the weekend. This one was probably my favorite, it was striking but I loved them all. She is one of these amazing people that can 'quilt on the run'!!! She has some great posts on our weekend away and the 'show and tell' that was achieved!! Head over for a look.
(I don't know why my link to Tracey isn't working but don't have time to look now, sorry!!!)
