Sunday Stash Reoport

I am back from our Sunshine Retreat at Vina Lestonnac in Temecula. It is out in the middle of wine country, a very beautiful, peaceful place.

 There were 26 of us in a nice big room, with plenty of table space to spread out!

 Our theme was Hawaiian Luau, with our friendly mascot below. The food was great, we shared lots of snacks, played Left Center Right game, and Candi brought lots of great door prizes. We even had pajama night, where we sewed all night in our PJ's. Shopping at Primitive Gatherings was also on the schedule along with massages!

I was able to complete the remaining blocks for the center of my Dear Jane, and also completed 4 more triangles. Only 9 more triangles to go and then sewing it all together!

Also completed this weekend,  a UFO from

 last year called Pinwheel parade. This is a a very simple easy quilt by Missouri Star Quilts. Yes, I have a finish to report this week!

A couple of adds to the stash from Primitive Gatherings. More reds for Dear Jane, and a grey to be used in a future project.

I also could not resist the patterns below: Omigosh by Susan Gorman, Among Friends and Pinwheel Garden both by Lisa Bongean, all with a lot of small pieces!

Out retreat ended too soon and we we are all looking forward to next year! Check back tomorrow to see all the little gifts that were brought by all.

Nothing finished this week, except some blocks for Sunshine Guild. These blocks will be used in our opportunity quilt for 2018. Everyone took a small part to work on and we will be putting together during retreat next week.

Next up was the BOM. Very easy and nice results. This will make a pretty quilt.

Above are all the pieces cut out and ready to sew. Just need to pull one more black from the stash,

Below are more Dear Jane Blocks. I am down to the last 6 blocks and will switch to working on the rest of the triangles next.

I am going to take a break from Dear Jane to finish up the quilt for Marigold and to work on the quilt that Sandi and I are making as an opportunity quilt for Sunshine. It is due in May and we need to get it going! Dear Jane will be the project I will be taking with me on our quilting retreat in May.

Have a great week!
