WINTER COTTAGE WEEKEND 2014

Jacqueline's Liberty Crossroads Quilt

As Spring is starting to truly get going here, I’m posting some wintery photos from our recent cottage weekend. A lovely tradition of getting away for a long weekend with friends, dogs and sewing machines was started a few years ago. It happens twice a year and is something I look forward to immensely.

The focus is sewing. We wake up early in the morning and get on our sewing machines, some of us sleep in because we were sewing until 3am in the morning. Having several days in a row to focus on projects means that stuff gets done! Huge quilts get quilted, binding is stitched, problems are solved and a thousand blocks are pieced. In between all that, there are amazing homemade meals and snacks, walks with dogs and afternoon naps. I’m pretty sure it doesn’t get better than this.

Just four months til the Summer Cottage Weekend!

  1. Absolutely beautiful quilts, having only completed one quilt with my limited sewing skills I am always blown away by the talent and art that goes into creating them!
