We had a small group of 5 - sadly one had to pull out at the last minute....two I had met & sewed with before - one new to me person and a friend of mine - Helen.
It doesn't really seem to matter about who is there - we all get along and enjoy seeing what the others are doing.
I was able to take advantage of the design walls that are hung up to lay out two I Spy quilts - much easier there, than on a bed at home. . .
I got all the rows sewn one of them and the other is pinned and numbered.
I made this Baby Quilt top
We all had a fun time - the shop is closing down, so there is a sale happening . . .some bargains may have come home with me.
and joined the rows for another, but couldn't find the right fabric for the internal borders.
And I started on 10 Bunny Bags - one was finished before I started the other 9 in a "production line".

I decided to leave off the faces....
my drawing skills are about 2/10, so they are best left blank!
and they are all for children 4 and under, so not a biggie
& the parents can add their own design!

Thanks Fiona for organising and Tracey for the Easter cakes, Wendy & Helen for adding to the fun!

THose bunny bags are just the cutest. The cupcakes look delish. Glad you had a nice time.
You always have a lovely time at Glenrose retreats. I had heard that the shop was closing, which is sad. Handy that you were there and able to bag a bargain. I hope the retreats will continue. The I spy quilt looks great and I’m glad you had a go at the bunny bags. They are a cute Easter gift.
Lovely quilts you got done, glad you got a few bargains, some may have arrived in the post here too!! haha
