A bit of a recap on what the others did...
Alison was working on a quilt for her caravan - It will be made up of squares with caravans and surfboards and coordinating filler blocks. I love these colours.
Sue made 4 of these coverlets (I missed one) for the hospital where she works. A simple but effective pattern.
Lynda made a table runner, a shopping tote and a clam bag.
Sandi made 42 strippy squares for a DV quilt and a very cute doll.
Helen sewed the binding on a Double Wedding Ring Quilt for a granddaughter who is getting married in early July, partially made a doll (it is not fully birthed yet), and took up a dress for a daughter to wear to the wedding....only the dress to show....
Chris made 4 placemats, several QLD & NSW "flags" to attach to dog collars, a few peg bags
Chris also worked on some plane blocks. One had a bit of an oopsie - the tail section was not quite right...
Chris was a newbie to this retreat...and you know that means some sort of initiation must happen. Chris also goes to bed early...that is a mistake!!!!!....a BIG mistake!!!!!
"We" (no single person to blame) decided to arrange the planes flying across the sky (design wall) and ending with a crash landing...
She took it all in good fun!
And me???
I made up 25 Orange Colourwash blocks
a baby quilt
(so hard to see the border against the design wall)
Blocks 9 and 10 for Be My Neighbour.
I had taken them all to retreat, thinking I might join them into rows. I didn't end up doing that, but I took advantage of the design wall to see how they look together.
I also made some crumb block sections that can be finished off later.
We had a lot of fun, solved a lot of the world's problems, and will return next year to repeat it all again.

Very chilly nights and as you said so good to have an electric blanket.
All the ladies were very busy and created many love.y projects.
Hmm! Going to bed wasn’t good at all for the newbie….
