"Autumn in New England" Is Finished!

Took it to evening guild meeting for show-and tell tonight.

Quilting " Autumn in New England"

Guild Retreat

The weekend of Sept. 13 we had a retreat at Threads of Time in Danvillehttp://www.threadsoftimefab.com/
So much fun! I took the quilt top from Virginia Walton's class in 2007- "Autumn in New England" and finally got most of it pieced. The curves were a challenge for me! The retreat center had a great sewing space: tables for machines, cutting tables and design walls. There were antique quilts on the walls, including one with wonderful embroidered bird blocks.

Sewing This Week

Made a cute little paper-pieced house block for the guild's evening meetings chairperson, did a feather design (my first attempt) machine quilting on my Illinois Sampler, sewed some blocks on Autumn, and made some prairie points for Il. Sampler.
