It Takes a Village
The S'mores will call, "I need a Village!" whenever a decision needs to be made on border fabric, or the arrangement of blocks, or just an opinion in general. Here Donna is getting input on her Stems and Stones. She and several others started this quilt in a class with Kelly Young (My Quilt Infatuation) several weeks ago. The variety of fabrics they are using makes each one unique. I'll try to get photos of all of them before retreat is over.
I've been busy at my table, too. I began the day putting borders on this variation of Wink and a Smile.

These were extra blocks from a class sample I made 2 years ago. I also cut a wide back for this one; the binding was already made before I came.

And before the day was done, I got the center of Trellis Garden put together.

All-in-all a productive day!
Your productivity amazes me! You are going to have some quilting to do... or be done when you get home! Let the good times keep rolling!
ReplyDeleteAn amazingly productive day! And they all look gorgeous! Sounds like you're having a great time at your retreat.
ReplyDeleteNice to see your SMM top finished. I really like the Trellis Garden top. When you showed the pattern I was like "blah", but now seeing your color choices I think that I need to find the pattern.
