Oregon Quilt Retreat...

I have returned to Oregon from 

the Idaho Retreat

I attended last week...

I put the Reflected Harmony quilt top,

I have in progress, up on the design wall...

I completed the central part of the quilt top

in Idaho last week...

Now that I am back in Oregon,

I will cut up these border fabrics

and stitch them onto the quilt top...

I am attending a quilt retreat here

in Oregon this week:

I have 4 borders added at this point...

The Flying Geese Border is the 4th border...

Adding the 5th border...

5 Borders.....1 more to go

I am getting too much help today !

6th and Final border....Dark Red Floral Fabric

Ta Da.......DONE !

I have lots of leftover fabrics...

This was a wonderful Quilt Retreat!

It is time to pack up all of our gear...

Three Quilters can really stuff a car full...

Stuffed side to side...

Hard to believe Larissa had room to sit

in this back seat...

This was my view from the front seat...

jammed and crammed full !

Here we are in Northern Idaho...

All of our gear and three Quilters fit in that car !
