retreat

Karen Sievert
This was our instructor at the retreat. This is not the project we made. This quilt was from her trunk show...she had lots of fantastic quilts to show. She is so friendly. A couple of our guild members met her last February at the Hampton Quilt Festival and made arrangements for her to come to our retreat. I'll show the project we made in a day or so when I get that second border on it.
The retreat was so much fun...I did the planning for the site, food, etc. The Hampton Inn had a wonderful meeting room with plenty of light...no need for extra lights. Sweet Tomatoes catered the food Friday & Saturday...it was great. They brought tons of food and it was all served in disposable containers. They did the set up & brought everything needed, plates, soup bowls, eating utensils , etc. They were very prompt also. We did some shopping also...Wish Upon a Quilt, Bernina World of Sewing, Carolina Sew N Vac, JoAnn's and Hancock fabrics ( and Michaels, too). A great time was had by all!!
