Retreat Project

Two weeks ago I was on a quilting retreat

at a small Quilt Cottage in upstate New York.

There were five of us there

for three days,

sewing away.

While I was there,

I worked on one quilt...

for my daughter and her fiance,

who are getting married in September.

Most of the blocks were made at the little cottage.

The blocks I wasn't able to finish up there have since been finished.

Rows are being sewn together now.

Yes... I am making another

"Diamonds in the Deep" quilt.

My future son-in-law is NOT a big fan of quilts.

(I know... I'm allowing my daughter to marry him anyway! :D)

When he saw the first Diamond in the Deep quilt I made for my

goddaughter, he asked me to make one for them.

How could I not do that?

He chose this deep teal color with the white.

 

I hope to have the rows sewn together this week and

to get it to the quilter after that.

Thankfully this is for a queen bed,

so I won't need to add borders.

Here is the unbound but quilted California King size quilt

I made earlier this year.

I do love this pattern,

but WOW!! is there a lot of cutting, sewing and pressing.

I'm linking to Small Quilts and Doll Quilts today.

Happy Quilting!
