So of course you all want to know what I worked on while there, right? I took 4 projects that I had precut at home so I could put pedal to the metal, I got them all to the point where I had set my goal. Three of them that needed a design wall now, and I wanted to do it at home so I could take my time arranging and sewing them. The fourth one made it to a complete flimsy. I haven't unpacked them all yet so you only will get to see one of them today.
I left a little earlier than planned yesterday, so when I got home I dug this one out. I put it up on my design wall and started sewing the rows together. Some of the prints are Tula pink and some from various other sources. The pattern is from Anka's Treasure called Opposite Attracks. It's kinda busy, hope it grows on my more!! I might get another row or sewn together today. But first, I have to make a valentine wall hanging for an order. My customer saw my personal one and she loved it and ordered one like it. Thankfully I had another panel(actually 2) like it.

Looks like gems! Glad you had fun!
ReplyDeleteThat looks like a fun pattern. I'm looking forward to seeing your other three projects.
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you met your goals at your retreat! Not getting sleep is not fun, though. I love your quilt and agree with Shannon's comment... it does look like jewels! Gorgeous.
ReplyDeleteSounds like the retreat was a success. Congrats on getting so much accomplished.
ReplyDeleteI love the project you have going and I bet you will too once it is done.
That retreat sounds exhausting. Can't believe how much you got done though. Like your quilt above...even though not my colours, that definitely works.
ReplyDeleteoh these blocks are lovely ! when i had to travel for work in the past i always found it hard to sleep in a strange bed
ReplyDeleteI agree....great blocks...I wrote the pattern down. :) FOur projects...awesome progress made!! Enjoy being home:) (It DOES always feel so good!)
ReplyDeleteI don't sleep well away from home either so I always travel w/a sleep aid. Right on for meeting all your goals! Your Opposites Attract is looking fantastic.
ReplyDeleteGlad you had such a good time, I agree with Val I take sleep aid with me. But be sure you have 8 hrs. to sleep or you will be groggy for awhile, and I hate that feeling.
ReplyDeleteLove the split hexie look. It's really fun and active with the prints you used.
ReplyDeleteThat looks like such a fun quilt to make!
ReplyDeleteSounds like a fun time. This quilt looks like fun to make.
