Quilting Weekend

April was a very busy month for me at work so I was so glad to know I had a quilting weekend coming up at the end of the month. Crystal is heading back to school in June so we decided our "Funny Bunny" quilting group needed one more get a way before she left, so we packed up all our sewing gear and headed north to the pine trees. The nights were still a bit chilly but we built a nice fire every night and snuggled up in our quilts to stay warm and toasty.


Crystal was working on this beautiful double wedding ring quilt. She was using batiks, I loved the colors she used. Hopefully she gets it finished before she needs to start studying.

Debbiesue was working on the Photo quilt for her parents 60th wedding anniversary. She is treating them to a Alaskan cruise and will present this quilt to them on the cruise boat. I wish I could be there to see it all. She had some of the cutest old pictures she was using. Congrats to them!

Bunny was putting together this quilt for one of her neices...lucky neice. Bunny was also our hostess as we went to her cabin this time. Thanks Bunny! (Sorry the picture is sideways, I don't know what I did.)

Me, well I worked on several smaller things. I needed to get my little May quilt ready to hang as it was May 1st when we headed home. I also worked on some quilt blocks for a quilt for my missionary son. I want to have it done to send to him for his birthday in August.

As I drove up to meet the rest who had left a couple of hours before I was able to leave I was so tempted to keep going to my own cabin in Heber. I hadn't been there since Oct. I resisted the temptation but on Sat. afternoon I announce that I was taking a break from sewing and head to Heber to check on things there. Everyone decided to take a break and come along. It turned out to be a good thing that we went up and checked because I found that I have a water leak that will need to be fixed before I can spend much time up there this summer. At least I know that I need to take a repairman (aka-a son) up with me the next time I go.

After a wonderful relaxing weekend quilting with friends I was ready to head back to work for another busy week. Crystal, we will miss you while you are at school. Hopefully you will find a little time we can meet up and catch up.
