Sharing A Few Quilt Tops...

 Susan finished this quilt top Monday afternoon. She can really whip out

some beauties in a short period of time. I'm really in awe of her speed!

 These are the gorgeous colors and prints Alice chose for her quilt.

She later added black sashing to create a really stunning contrast.

 There are FIVE Donnas at this retreat...and one Dawna. Whenever anyone

 calls "Donna", all of us look up. It's become a joke. The Donna who sits

 closest to me has been churning out kids quilts like there's no tomorrow.

This modified pinwheel quilt is the fifth top she's made since arriving

 at the hotel. I know there will be a lot of happy kids receiving them.

This was my progress by Monday afternoon. It's finished as of yesterday 

morning, but I didn't get a picture of it yet because there were other quilts

set up on the stage so I couldn't lay it out. I'll post a picture tomorrow so

 you can see what it looks like. It's already scheduled to go to Kathy's longarm.

 I have a special idea for the back of the  quilt to do first, and I'll put that 

together when I get back home. I'm really happy with  the way it turned 

out and it is filled with symbolism from a well-known song. More tomorrow.

We spent the day in the ballroom today and I nearly finished the last of my
tablet cases. A few velcro pieces to sew down and then they'll also go to the
"Done" pile. The quilt top took much longer than any of us who did one
expected, so I finished less than I planned. I'm not complaining. I have a
finished quilt and my quilt show boutique items will be ready to hand in, too.

I met many great gals, and a few new friends. I can't wait to introduce you to one
of those quilters on Friday. Believe me, you won't want to miss seeing her work.
One thing I've learned is that I still have much to learn!
