Stitchin' Sisters: 2019

We recently had our Fall quilting retreat at Quincy's Quilting in Leduc, AB. They have a lovely workshop area with large, solid, wooden tables and ergonomic chairs - with wheels so you can just wheel yourself around like some people did! (okay, it was me wheeling around!)

Lots of lovely projects were started or completed or thought about! Here are some photos from our 3 day retreat:

This is Sue's beautiful wall hanging; the flannel fabric felt like a rich velvet and the colours were also very rich!

Bev's Lori Holt Farm Girl Vintage Quilt.

Bev's Canadian Women 150 Quilt set on point to resemble a Maple Leaf.

Mackie the Daschund!

She knew the Faye2 had brought treats!

Carole's spool quilt!

A few photos of the space, lots of room!

Cheryl's lovely quilt is going to make someone very happy!

Jane's beautiful quilt to going to be heading to a lucky couple!

Some random shots of all of us working hard!

Sue is happy her bag is complete - she'll be using it to store her rulers.

Lori Holt Vintage Christmas mitten - will be a mug rug.

Carole's Exploding Block quilt!

Another Lori Holt Vintage Christmas block - another mug rug!

Faye1's Acorn Wall hanging - lovely for Fall!

Very serious discussion between Jane and Cheryl - more Canadian Women 150 blocks.

Faye2's lovely wall hanging! Love the corner blocks!

We played two games of Strip Poker - for loonies - and Bev won the first game and Cheryl won the second - always fun as it can be anyone's game right up to the end!

And here's our happy, smiling faces!!

Thanks for reading!!

It's way past time to show you what has been happening at Stitchin' Sisters. In January we all filled out a UFO list: we each listed our Unfinished Objects as of January 1, 2019 and boy did it reveal a PILE of UFOs!!

I think it spurred all of us into action; no way I want to carry my list over in 2020! So here is a glimpse at our projects and some birthdays (in no particular order!!)
