The Quilted Cottage always sets up a little shop in one corner of the downstairs sewing room. They aren't usually dressed this way, but are always cute. They are Jackie and Stacy (owners) and Julie (store manager). I was pretty controlled this time in what I bought. On the left is pillowcase fabric from the breast cancer awareness line. Remember the Snap Happy Bags? Now there are Snap Happy Totes! The other pattern is a cute table topper that can be made for any occasion.
Connie and I worked on more gingerbread potholders which will become shower and Christmas gifts. Connie got a great start on her little stars wallhanging and I turned my nine patches into Sister's Choice blocks.
The last picture shows one of the dorm rooms. The Quilted Cottage adopted the room and seven groups of ladies made seven quilts for the beds. The bed at the top left has the quilt made by Connie, Helen and me.

I love quilting retreats. You had quite a big group. The largest retreat I have attended is 40 quilters. It is such fun to see all the different projects being made by everyone. That is the best part for me.
Oh my goodness... that is WAY too much fun you lucky duck! Now why didn't you try the Zipline?!?
I am going to make some of those potholders this year if I can remember. Love the sister's choice blocks!
