I have no idea how we are almost at the end of October!
This has been a crazy busy month,
but with good things.
Last week I took my annual trip to upstate NY for Quilt Camp!
Six of us get together and rent a house on Keuka Lake
(in the Finger Lakes region)
and sew and chat and laugh and sew for 4 days.
At last years quilt camp, we decided to draw names and
make a quilt with a fall theme for the person whose name we drew.
It was so fun to see everyone's quilts!
Kathy, on the left, made this quilt for Shelly.
Irene, on the right, made this quilt for her daughter, Missy.
Missy, on the right, made this adorable quilt for her mom, Irene.
How fun is it that they had each others' names!
I made this quilt for Holly, who was unable to join us this year.
She fell a couple of weeks before camp and broke her left hand
in two places. Ouch!!
My sister in law, Shelly, made this gorgeous quilt for me.
I had commented that I loved this fabric line,
not knowing that she was using it for my quilt!
Holly made this beautiful quilt for Kathy.
We are hoping that we all will be able to attend next fall.
The theme for next years quilts is Spring!
While we are in upstate NY, we were able to see
the northern lights.
It's the first time I've seen them and they were so beautiful.
Happy Quilting!

Don't shortchange us. There are 11 full October days left :-)
What fun! And beautiful quilts. Retreats/camps with friends and family are the best!
What great quilts! So cool that you got to see the Northern Lights. We did see them here too but not that bold.
That was a very neat and special thing you did for each other. Those quilts are just fabulous! Were you able to see the Northern lights with your naked eye or just through the camera. We never see them with the naked eye here.
Wow those are gorgeous quilts
