The Retreating Quilters

Hello Everyone,

What a day.....what a fabulous day we had at Snowflake Lodge for my Sew'n Wild Oaks 2nd annual quilting retreat.  The following pictures are just a small sample of the creativity in the room.







I promise to take more pictures tomorrow.








It does seem that quilting and eating go hand in hand.  After a great Caesar Salad and homemade bread for lunch.........


.....a few of the girls headed out for a stroll around Snowflake Lake, and enjoyed the glorious, Autumn afternoon.



Laurie and Nancie enjoyed soaking up the sun while looking at the view from the deck.

 
Melody led the group in our own 7th inning stretch to get loose before the game.
 


At 5:07pm......the room cleared for the first pitch of the World Series.


 
A few of us dressed in orange and black to support the Giants.  Laurie put on her rally cap, but our enthusiasm wasn't enough for our team to win.......maybe tonight our cheering and support will be felt all the way to Kansas City.


This picture captures the essence of our day.  Peaceful, ripples of laughter, tranquil,  colorful, a day filled with beauty and beautiful people, all with a common quilting bond.  Memories are in the making.




Soon,
Lynn
