Was a great retreat week-end.

I spent last Friday, Saturday and Sunday at a Sew-A-Thon retreat.  It was from 9-9 Fri. & Sat. and from 9-3 on Sunday.  There were 22 ladies who spent the whole week-end sewing.  The 3 lunches and 2 dinners were included and each group of 4 were responsible for one of the meals.  The food was fabulous.  I spent all of Friday and part of Saturday working on my Animals Quilt for the RV.  I managed to get quite a bit of piecing done but it is a real slow process using scraps etc. to build up fillers between the blocks.  Here is a picture of a few of the blocks put together.

I also have been working on a scrappy quilt using 7" blocks of muslin covered with strips of scraps and then I will put those blocks together to create a quilt.  Here are some of the blocks.  I believe I have about 100 blocks done and hoping to keep going and maybe make 2 quilts.
 
I also made a couple of Mug Rugs for Jade and stitched out some Easter designs for postcards but haven't taken any photos yet.
