Blue Mountains Quilt Retreat Day 1

Snow yesterday, sun and blue skies today. Withy the extreme weather out of the way we could head off to Day 1 of the retreat. We were welcomed with goody bags and tables decorated with gorgeous little birds.




Gail, Lisa and Carol had so many beautiful projects and patterns on display.........it was hard to know where to look, what to buy, and which project to start with.


Of course I was attracted by the 1/2" hexies. So I'm starting with Carols' needle case.

We are having a great time, the designers are so incredibly friendly and helpful. More pics later.
