Cobble Court Quilt Retreat 3

Reenie and her girl.
      All I have to say is that I have never ever laughed so much in my life as I did this weekend. It is all Judy's fault too.
The Road Crew plus me...

We sewed... a lot.  We ate.... a lot.  We went to two quilt shops; very nice. And when we played the fat quarter game....let's just say, some do not play very nice....ummmm Judy!!!  (yeah she is a character)

Table Runner Swap

Cobble Court Quilt Circle is doing a table runner swap.  Honestly, it is still going on. The due date hasn't arrived yet. My partner is a go-getter. She is finished and I have my table runner on my dining room table. I love it!!  Gingerbread Men!!!  Favorite!!!

 
This is from Bonnie. She is new to the forum and I sure hope she hangs around for a long time. She is fabulous!!

Thank you!

Arizona - Im in love!!!

   Eric and I returned from Arizona at the end of September. (Yes, Im still a little behind)
I had a fabulous time. I have a tan now.... yay, I do not feel I missed summer any longer.  We stayed at the Camel Back Inn. It is a Marriot Hotel. I do enjoy being pampered; drinks by the pool at 11 o'clock, sitting and swimming then dinner and drinks.
   On Saturday we ventured to Sedona. I so much enjoyed the rock formations and mostly photographing them. The gardens here are where I captured the pictures of the humming bird.

The Bun Patch

The Bun Patch is the name given to Adele's quilt. I love this pattern which is titled Patchwork Fields. I loved it, she loved it in the magazine and so I offered to make it for her if I could use what I had in the stash. I brought a bag to work with all the fabrics required for the pattern. Adele looked them over and said absolutely.



See the bunny in the right corner? This is Bun, Adele's bunny which is black and gray with white black tail and a pink nose (or she wanted a pink nose).




This is one of my favorite quilts. It turned out to be 81" x 81".  Very scrappy and all of her favorite fabrics. There is even a purple 30's fabric with bunnies.
