0 for April

I'm batting 0 for April with my blog postings, but will try to be more consistent. (If you're a long-time follower, you know that I'm a die-hard, loyal fan of the Detroit Tigers. It's April in the "D"!)

Last week was the spring DJ Retreat in Shipshewana. The weather outside was horrible, but it couldn't dampen the wonderful atmosphere inside "The Farmstead Inn Conference Area" where about 80 Dear Jane quilters gathered to sew, laugh, share ideas and snack a bit.

Helen, Connie and I almost finished our Eugenia wool pin cushions. They just need their feet. Cindy gifted them with these cute chairs.They also got comfy in an Amish buggy.



We also worked on our Smores quilt making square in a square blocks with Jo Morton fabrics.

 
The Show and Tell was amazing, as always. I came home with too many new ideas.
