Happy Blocks and a happy class. This is the beginning of my blog about West Virginia and story quilts that were coming along there...stay tuned for more photos....
So this week I was in West Virginia at Cedar Lakes outside of Riley West Virginia. The place is a little piece of heaven with beautiful green lawns, water, huge trees and flowers...plus hundreds of singing birds. We spent five wonderful days together there building story quilts. Today I am showing you the beginning borders and in a few days I am going to show you the drawings that will go into the middle of these girls quilts. There were 21 of us and ALL NICE wonderful and creative girls who go their artists to come out and play. there was alot of sharing and laughing and creating. You girls who signed up for my retreat and workshops in Texas, Asilomar and Idaho Falls will enjoy some of these same techniques.
NOTE-for now if you can't take a class from Mary Lou, buy "Out of the Box" which goes into detail about HOW to do this and tell the world about YOU
Look at the intensity of people hard at work!
What wonderful pictures! You captured the fun and productiveness (is that a word?) of the class. I enjoyed every minute of it. And you are so right, everyone was so nice. It was "almost heaven" to be there! Thanks to you - a great teacher!
