A Very SURMA Summer

I've got a great group of sewing pals that get together to sew every few months. This time we headed to the

Ponderosa Quilt Retreat! I traveled handmade of course!I always love the drive to the mountains!

We stopped in Black Mountain and met up with our friend Sarah from Stash Bash. Patchwork Threads were pretty popular!! This is Chrissy, me & Sarah.

I finished a quilt top! It's for a secret project, so more on that later! Obviously who it's for, not what it looks like, is the secret.

I used my new half square rectangle Bloc Loc rulers. Perfect points every time!!

Each of us made nine of something to gift to everyone else! This is the present table. It was pretty amazing!!

These are my little gifties!! I love each and every one!

I made Liberty patchwork pinnies for everyone!

And I finished my last block for my Tula 2.0 quilt. All 101!! There was a minor snafu and I made one of the blocks twice. We celebrated!

Nicole wore her awesome Designer Star patchwork threads while she made chihuahua shirts. She's my favorite.

The facility is pretty well stocked! Check out the ruler & tool wall!! We played all weekend.

Tessa and I stayed until the last minute. We sewed like mad people!!

Thanks to Kim for having us!!
