Retreat day 2

Well the blocks I mucked up made it back out of the do not look at bag and after the think tank got together and had a look new blocks have been made.
Yesterday morning I made 11 One Block Wednesday blocks, that brings my total to 130.

Carleen and I went out for a wander and found ageocache 90 m from where we are staying, easiest one ever I have found!! 😊😊 It was a beautiful autumn day.

A little progress was made on the Aussie Hero quilt, the star blocks are now not stars but still can be used than goodness. The stripy bit acroos the top was made from the cut off corners..no waste happening here 😊😊.

Carleen finished her quilt top..the fabric is beautiful  and looks like flocked wall paper.

Deciding where the names go on the family tree!!

In the evening another 12 OBW blocks were made, total now 142, still a way to go to catch up, but am happily puttering along.

This beautiful quilt is hanging on a wall at the retreat.
I had better get oing, I slept in this morning,  now it is heading for lunch time.
Happy stitching.

    You’re having a very productive retreat!
