10th Annual Barrett Quilt Retreat...

 This was our group for this year's annual quilt retreat...

 We each helped sew blocks for the Swoon quilt. Rose was the winner of the blocks... We chose solids and 30's reproductions for the blocks...

Cousin Eileen's pink scrap quilt...delicious..We all enjoyed each other's company and show and share.  The food was fantabulous...We got all 9 blocks completed on Swoon and Rose is one happy camper....Looking forward to next year's quilt retreat!!

I'm totally Swooning...

 I'm totally SWOONING...I got to sew this quilt for one of our local quilt stores...I did a trial block, which turned into a baby quilt and is presently at the quilter...I will post pictures when I get it back.  When I was asked to sew this for the store, I was so excited I couldn't stand it!!!  The blocks are a whopping 24" finished and the Ruby fabric...well a quilt made in heaven..or at least I thought I was in heaven!!

 I had a blustering winter wind this morning for photos, but you get the idea...

 A close up of one of the blocks...my quilter, Holly, did a superb job at quilting...I don't know if I can part with this quilt long enough for it to be at the fabric store...I have this total crush on it...By the way, there is a Swoon-a-long going on over here...

And to let the cat out of the bag for my family members who come to the annual Barrett retreat, we will be making Swoon...Above are the fabric choices for the blocks (we are doing a 30's theme for the retreat).  We will sew the 9 blocks at the retreat, and a drawing will be held for the completed blocks for all those who participated in building them....Hope you are as excited as I am for this...so look forward to June!!
