Fall adventures at Quilt Camp !

Well I had a fun weekend with "the girls" up at Quilt Camp in the mountains. This is the place we love to go called Bear Cabin. Carol just treated us royally with her wonderful home made food and desserts and we had all the time we wanted for naps and sewing. It was f-r-e-e-z-i-n-g outside so we never stepped a foot out after we unloaded our cars on thursday morning to when it was time to reload on sunday ! It rained and was wonderful to watch from her 3 sided/elevated/windowed giant sewing area. Snow was predicted but didn't come but it was wonderful to sip hot tea and hear the rain ( we dessert rats love that ) while we sewed.
It was great to have some time to sew, I got alot done but unfortunatly I can't show you photo's as alot of the things are christmas presents ! But I did get this done. This is a cat placemat that I made for me but it's a sample to hang at the quilt shop, so it's going to work tomorrow. There is a set of "vegetable cats" patterns that we found at market and they are all so cute, caulipus, gordo, an eggplant one, and on and on, well I brought the "celery" one home to do and so this is "STALKER".
Here is Denise, she got so many neat things done, this is a great applique piece that she pieced and prepped for appliqueing. Denise you are an inspiration !
Here is Barb, she was quilting this pretty quilt ( it's one our quilt group started so somewhere my blocks like this live in a baggie !)

Here is a close up !hmmmmm come January I need to find that baggie !

Here is Sarah, she plopped this great piece on the design wall and was working on the applique border blocks, also see that sock hanging up in the corner, yep she knitted that, I tried to steal it but it didn't work !
Here is another one Sarah was working on... it just sparkled.


Here is Pam, she had this great scrappy quilt to quilt amongst a few others she finished up.

Aren't these little 1 inch pieces pretty in this one of Pam's too.

Here is Barb, she was the Bag queen !
Barb finished up this one too .
And lookee here, someone left this treat on my machine !!!!! How did that quilting fairy remember that.....yep and they are gone !

So thanks girls for the great weekend and all the laughs, we had alot of that going on !
