Weekend Stitching

Carol here ~

I spent the weekend at a Virtual Stay-treat via Zoom hosted by Michelle Renee Hiatt and Lynn Wheatley. It was so much fun!

This is the second Stay-treat I have attended with Michelle and Lynn. I was able to stitch all weekend from my little corner up in the quilting loft with 17 other quilters from across the country on the computer screen.

We had quilters attending from ~

Nebraska
Minnesota
California
Vermont
Massachusetts
Connecticut
Texas
Tennessee
Illinois
Maine
New Hampshire
Maryland

Every morning we all shared our outside temperature. Of course, Maine and Vermont were the coldest!

There were several different projects we could choose to work on. I chose DOGWOOD LANE, a pattern by Michelle.

Here we are getting instruction from Michelle.

We had several challenges. We had to show ~

• What was I thinking fabric (ugly fabric)
• Our “Bernie” mittens
• A Favorite Mug
• Oldest and best notion
• Oldest UFO
• Favorite slippers and craziest socks

Can you tell I’ve been sewing and trimming? And this was after I attempted to get the threads off with the lint brush!

Here are the blocks I have completed so far. 

 I have a lot more in various stages ready to stitch together.

I should be able to get further along tomorrow as it sounds like it's going to be a Snow Day, Sew Day!

Stay safe everyone!
