Another Retreat

Passionate Purple Quilter

What is up with Blogger?  I don't like changes.  If something is not broken, why fix it?

Last weekend I attended a quilt retreat.  We had a great time.  I finished a quilt back and passed my top and back to a long arm quilter who attends our retreats.  I have been working on that quilt for two or three years.  Whooppie!

I also sewed three BOM blocks.  I hope I can post pictures of them.  Here goes.



 Two weekends ago I attended a guild quilt class taught by Lyn Mann.  Here is a picture of my finished block.  I am supposed to make eight more, but I believe this is the only block I will make and it will become a baby quilt. The class was great and Lyn is a super teacher.  I am just not happy making these small curved pieces.  This block is 18 inches square.



Happy Quilting

Liebester Blog Award

The Liebester Blog Award has been awarded to me and my blog by Angie from Timber Hill Threads. There are five things that I am supposed to do after accepting this award. I am supposed to pick five blogs that I would give this award to, and notify them in a comment on their post. These blogs are to have 200 or less followers. Truthfully, I cannot pick only five blogs to give this award. I want to give every blogger on my side bar this award. I cannot pick only five. I have already broken the rules, and for that I apologize. I am also supposed to cut and paste the logo into my post. I cannot do that since I have tried to do it and have failed. So again I apologize. It seems that I am a poor follower of the rules, but my heart is in the right place. Every quilter on my side bar has inspired me in my craft. That is why I have listed them in my side bar. All of my favorite bloggers (on my side bar) who have 200 or less followers please go to Angie's blog to see what the Liebester Blog Award is about and decide if you want to accept the award. I feel that you all deserve it. Happy Quilting
