If you ever have the chance to get away for a quilting retreat weekend I highly recommend that you do so. I attended a retreat this weekend sponsored by the Dauphin Crocus Quilter's Guild of which I am currently a member and the Flin Flon North Star Quilt Guild, which I used to belong to. The retreat was hosted by Wendy and George at Fabriculous. I plugged my camera in to make sure it was charged so I could take a lot of pictures, but forgot it at home so I will have to send you over to Kathy's blog for all the details.
I was able to get the borders on my latest quilt with the help of a friend - thanks Kathy! I had purchased a different fabric for the border. (I actually picked the border fabric first and picked all the others to go with it.)
It was such a great weekend with friends. There were times when it seemed like socializing and shopping were going to take over the sewing, but quilters would never allow that to happen! I like that phrase, "gentle encouragement". I have been swayed several times by gentle encouragement.
