For those of you that follow the blog you will remember I taught a fabulous group of quilters way back in January at The Wimberley Quilt Ranch.  Our quilt of choice was Fire Island Hosta.  If you want to re-visit that blog post click HERE!

The end of June found me back at the Quilt Ranch and this will be a 2-part post.  This is part 1 (well part 2 of the Fire Island Hosta, part 1 of the June Retreat!)  This retreat was for “Beginners and Finishers!”  We had 2 finishers from our January retreat and I would like to highlight those quilts here along with “Lucy’s” Fire Island Hosta which is HOT OFF the Long Arm!  I had so much fun quilting her quilt – I love whimsical quilting and her quilt was just the key for some of that fun!

So here is to our Fire Island Finishers!

Click here to get your pattern!  What to join us for a retreat?  I have several on the schedule!

Mary’s finish! I am so excited for Mary! Her 2nd Paper-pieced quilt! She also got her borders on her quilt during the retreat but I did not get a photo! (She also started another quilt – see part 2)

Diane’s finish! Her colors were scrumptious! She added a little 3d accent around her leaves to make them stand out a little more!

And now to “Lucy’s” quilt. Lucy is also known as Ronda! She is the fuel provider at our Wimberley Retreats AND she is the owner of a fabulous retreat center in LaPorte TX – learn more here!

Sometimes I think I must have the best “job” around!  Thanks to all of you for being part of the fun!
