Alphabet Quilt Retreat...


Here is the official invitation to the retreat that was held in Bear Lake (located by the Utah/Idaho border) at our friend's cabin...5 star accommodations...
Check out these delectable ABC cookies...they were as good as they look...
Everyone received a little bag with their name on it....contents included an alphabet label which was signed by all who participated, treats, an alphabet fat quarter and an alphabet scissor phab or fob...
One of the delicious meals prepared by the hostess with the mostest...

The view of Bear Lake from the cabin--absolutely gorgeous and magnificent...
The alphabet quilt put together and ready for quilting...What a fun time we had--9 ladies participated and exchanged blocks. They are all so very darling and
I'm proud to have this quilt...


Close of "G" grapes--some of these buttons were dyed with rit dye...

"K" for keys; note the little keys attached to the applique with ribbon...

"R" a rabbit riding a red rooster...


"U" for undies...what fun blocks, and these are just a few that I did close ups of, but they all were dear to my heart... Thank you all who participated and made this whole experience so wonderful and magical...
