Retreat Weekend

Over the Spring Bank Holiday weekend, 13 of us went on our first ever patchwork and quilting retreat, from Friday evening to Sunday afternoon. A weekend of sewing, eating, sewing, eating, sewing eating, sleep, sewing, eating.... you get the drift.

We were blessed. The weather was fabulous, so was the venue, and we lucky enough to be the only group staying in the house so could swap things around and spread out a little.

The theme for the weekend was a jelly roll - make whatever takes your fancy. The theme was optional though; those wishing to work in their own project did so.

A couple of quilts were actually finished over the weekend and several tops were pieced. Here are some photos from the weekend.
