Day one of retreat

Im up at Glenrose Patchwork  again for quilting retreat.

A lovely drive down, greeted with the usual scones with jam and cream for morning tea in the divine shop.

Car unpacked and checked out all the beautiful things in our room

Then got stuck into sewing ( apparently that's  why we are here.

My achievements for the first day
...

Farm Girl Vintage Table Runner and Natalie Birds In My Garden quilt top (and the binding ready to go).Not  a bad achievement if I do say so myself

Button swap

The most recent swap for my online group was hosted by me and I came up with the challenge of a button theme.

Here are the lovely goodies received from Jo (including some more buttons to feed my habit) (oh and there was a chocolate that didnt make the photo shoot) ... 

And the block keeper I made for Teresa ...

I can see a whole lot more button projects in my future!
