A Relaxing Retreat.

I've just had a fabulous 3 night retreat with my wonderful quilting friend,  Norma, when she invited me to her holiday home in Ocean Grove.  I've been working on a special quilt for my granddaughter,  Sophie, and it was very rewarding to finish preparing all 12 of the blocks.
I played Visoflix "chicken" and managed to get every block finished thankfully as I only had a small piece leftover. The blocks took a lot of work and I managed to fuse all of them so they're now ready for buttonwhole stitching on the machine.
I've used a Red Boot Quilt pattern but have changed it a bit. I made more mice as I thought they were cute, and I'll add a plain border instead of piecing a checkerboard border. 

I'm hoping to fit in the stitching as well as quilting donated tops so this project doesn't stall. 

Hugs, Jan Mac xx
