Four days of more sewing, laughing, joking and little sleep. Always worth it!

Phyllis and Nancy doing the usual pajama night serenade. This time Phyllis was Minnie Pearl and Nancy was Dolly Parton.

These ladies are the funniest. There were lots more photos, including some that weren’t quite G-rated. You get a bunch of crazy women together, aged 50 and up, and it’s bound to be a hoot. I wouldn’t miss these retreats for the world. Always worth the lack of sleep

Well, I only got a few photos yesterday at the quilt show before my camera battery died. That’s what I get for not recharging it after just returning from the Sunshine Quilters Guild. Oh, well . . . please enjoy these nonetheless. The work is impressive!

Four days of sewing, laughing and joking. I’m darned tired today but it was well worth it!

That's me with my candy apple red Featherweight (and a candy apple, thanks to Phyllis!)

I pieced this Harvest Time quilt in two and a half days

That's Roberta peeking over the top of her stunning dragonfly quilt

That's our motto!

Here’s some of my favorites from their last show. Look at this first photo. It’s a hexagon-shaped quilt (98″ x 102″) by Michiko Takakuwa of Japan, simply titled “My Flower”.

Another beauty!

Tea and berries at the bistro -- yum!

Linda took over 50 photos from the July 2006 show, and here’s just a few of them.  This popular event draws thousands of admirers from across the U.S. and Canada.

Enjoy!
