While on a quilt retreat weekend, you get to know your fellow quilters quite well, especially their style of quilting, favorite color choices, and the awesomeness of all their productivity, creativity, community, charity and even tranquility (we had message therapists Saturday and Sunday for those "needing" a message!). It's a whirl of activity all day long, and long into the night....(or at least we used to), to accomplish something, like a finished top, a water color painting, a men's shirt, or even a start of something new. It's an open slate to do whatever you want to do, and I am thankful for the time to devote to my passion with others who have the same passion(s) as me.
My photos today include productivity, creativity, community, and tranquility by my fellow retro retreaters....Painting by Barbara Alderman; quilt top components by Mary Nielsen, men's shirt by Karen Todd, bag parts by Carrie Casto and bag part/pool noodles, ahem, finished by Deb Hoppe, and candids of Carrie and Susie Stevenson and Misty Cole (my table partner) while working at her machine.
BSoleille!
