Farm Girl Friday - At Retreat!!!


Good morning 
Farm Girl Friday people!
This morning I'm at my 
second retreat this month 
hosted by
in Draper, Utah:)


We are sewing from the book 
and also a few other fun little projects.




We all have these barn name tags...
aren't they cute?





This is what the classroom
 looks like at 
The Lodge
where our retreat is.
Isn't it gorgeous?


We have lots of Farm Girl blocks
 up on the design wall...



And lots of shopping at
 Thimbles and Threads 
darling quilt shop...
(out of print and hard to find BIMB fabrics)


Lots of chatting around the fire...


And super fun kits
 put together by 
Thimbles and Threads.




I also introduced three new 
Farm Girl Companion blocks
 for this months retreats...
this one is HONEY BEE!



This one is
BARN CAT...



And last but not least
 is my farm girl
MILK COW!

All three blocks will be
 available
 in PDF pattern form soon...
Stay tuned and I will 
announce when they are ready!


In the meantime...
you can follow all the fun
 by tuning in to my

See you next week!
xx

  2. Love, love your new blocks that are coming out. Beautiful lodge! Fun times, on your retreat - maybe someday, I too will be able to sit and enjoy and soak in one of your retreats.

  4. What a fun time. I love the cow
    I could make a whole quilt of those for my mom.
    It would make her happy.

    I am taking care of my 92 year oldsters. They are adorable. Mom had a stroke and gets really depressed and anxious now. She loves cows.

    This retreat looks like soooooo much fun. I wish I were there.

    2 retreats in one month... I'm jealous then my husband might be a little upset if I'm gone all the time
    Your picture game me an idea. The place I go to for retreat has a balcony. I need to start having the girls hang their finished tops along it till we leave.
