Quilt Camp here I come

Posted By on February 16, 2011

I am heading to Quilt Camp bright and early Thursday morning…..the car is packed, Nellie (my Ford Escape) is full of gas…..and I have visions of ocean waves and sewing machines dancing in my head!  Good food, giggles with friends and that wonderful ocean air for five days……..I had to pull up some of my pictures from last year so that I could anticipate the beauty …..isn’t Corolla, North Carolina pretty?

Here is one of the things I will be working on……SUMMER JEWELS from Augusta Cole’s Cutting Bee……it is out of my comfort zone – BRIGHTS – we will see how it turns out!  And this year I am only taking one sewing machine – if I have a MACHINE BREAKDOWN, no problem, I have my sock knitting packed.  I just might get those socks knitted afterall.  (One of my socks is now 5 1/2″ along and hasn’t been torn out!  YEAH!)  I will post when I get back…..

Have a HAPPY PRESIDENT’S DAY EVERYONE!  I will too!

    Hey Shirley, I love Corolla too! Maybe one day I’ll get to attend Quilt Camp. I met Christy in a Laura Wasilowski class at Mid Atlantic Quilt Fest a few years ago.

    Enjoy!

    Beach, friends, quilting and time – what a wonderful combination. We are all envious of your retreat. Hope there will be a knitter in attendance to help with the socks – otherwise, too frustrating. That heel has been my “staller” and I have ripped out several times. Enjoy Judy C.
