Retreat

This weekend I am at Daylesford being an extra body to make up numbers for a quilt retreat. Yesterday I made an Aussie Hero quilt top
the request was for bright flowers. I have made it a bit too wide because my maths brain went haywire last night! Some quilting will happen at home. 
Last night I did some free range quilting on the other Aussie Hero quilt
blogger has given a side view!!
I was happy with the book blocks, I had planned to do more but they took a lot longer than I expected
Lots more quilting to be done at home.
Today I went over to Trentham to do an Adventure Lab. It took me from the park in rhe old quarry site to the train station to the Falls. It was interesting and a good walk.
oops, here is Kathy with her near finished quilt top, she is very happy 😊

I have been sewing Anthology blocks today, have just had a short walk  now it is back to sewing.
Happy stitching.
