Saturday, April 25, 2015. Last year for the first time I went to a real Quilt Retreat! My husband went along and he had a good time too. So this year we are going to be going back for more fun and good friends! I love being able to meet people I have been online friends with for several years. It is so much fun to get to know people in person. I will post pictures when we get back. There was a lot of laughter and alot of great times spent showing our quilts and learning new techniques. The art of quilting.

I offer these sizes on my website for $2 ea plus $1 shipping. Http:/ www.patchworkbyrhonda.com/catalog.php? Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

The guild has taken my idea and asked the members to make blocks that we can hinge together at a Quilt Bee in the fall, so I decided to make a few. Once I get started I can't seem to stop. I ended up making seven. They were to be 12 1/2 inch squares but leave an edge all around them so that they can be squar...A Little ...
