And I linked up over at "can I get a Whoop Whoop?" too., come on by and see what everyone is up to.
Here is my finished little quilt that I made from scraps from a little quilt Mary Ann was piecing while on retreat in Alabama.
China and Mary Ann Pettway led our retreat and didn't so much teach but set up a spiritual atmosphere conducive to creativity, full of suggestions, inspiration and support in each persons vision for her own quilt. I found out they will be back at Camp McDowell again this Spring, if you can go I sure would not miss the chance to quilt with these wonderful ladies from Gee's Bend. ( email Sarah Nee at folkschool@campmcdowell.com for more information. ) No affiliation just a happy camper :0)
Happy Sewing, Kim
