Last week was our second annual Quilt Retreat here in Edmonton, AB! We had 25 ladies out for a wonderful day of quilting, friendship and food. As an organizer it is so rewarding to hear laughter around the room and see everyone enjoy such a good day "off" from their regular routine.
I'll let the pictures tell the story...

I'm kinda sad it's all over already and look forward to next year already!!
**Also, if you've made anything during the past couple of months for the
Pregnancy Care Centre Sew-Along be sure to upload a photo in the
flickr group for a chance to win some patterns from Birdiful Stitches.

Suzanne, it looks like SO MUCH FUN! Maybe next year I should plan my trip to Alberta on the same weekend as th QR.
ReplyDeleteI'm also impressed with how many sewn items that were collected for the Pregnancy Care Centre. Very well done to all the ladies who participated!

Looks like it was a fun day! Next year I hope to be back :)
